It sounds interesting, however from a system administrator point of view it shouldn't be really difficult to create with the current tools. With some custom scripts I think it should be possible to do it with current tools, the most difficult part is messages that get deleted from the file system (pop3/imap) I guess. I can set it up later this year in a test environment and publish my findings about it. If this is interesting for others to know please mention it and I'll test it and publish it. Regards, Mark
