I like these ideas a lot, but I'd prefer to see the low-level email
integration done seperately, so it can be used for other things.

My dream would be for Zope to pipe an email address to a specific
object/method without the need for any external mail servers or
scripts...

ZMailman could then very easily be built on top of this. However, if
ZMailman is built, I suspect it'd be difficult to use the core
functionality to do something else. What is the email equivalent of
Medusa? And can we 'borrow' it in the same way?

Any takers? ;-)
