to the user isn't happening much yet. And in a way terminating close to the input of network, and proxying to a relevant location seems to me a way that could incorporate some smarts without having to hold e-mail close to the edge, and slightly improve mail delivery performance for larger emails. So the proxy would hold mappings of user to location, then open up a connection masquerading as the users original source for any acl's, rate limiting or such. And if the connection from the edge to the mail server breaks, then another connection directly to the relevant location may work. Ben.
