Having things run in the kernel space is just plain stupid. Keep things out of the kernel and you are on to a winner. The kernel is NOT the place to be handling remote file systems, it's just plain silly.
Unix (likes) are dead. Not only that they are beginning to really smell.
I can steal your key and sign messages with it, use my *own* MAIL FROM: in the envelope and you will *never see* any bounces from it and will be none the wiser.
nope, the outgoing MTA signs the source email as it leaves the MTA, so long as two different MTA's would generate the same same signature for the same email the contents of that source email is irrelevent.
He just needs an SMTP sending script on his laptop.
One can also imagine that one would sign just the body text of the email and let the headers be freely altered. All that can be checked is that the signature was as expected from the MTA delegated to sign for domain in the From: user@domain
The only new piece of information provided by DomainKeys is that the entity that signed the email knows the passphrase for the key that's in the central database for the domain in the From: header.
You still can't trust *any* of the other information to be accurate beyond whatever means you have in place already.
bounces are sent to the envelope from, not the RFC822 From: header on which DomainKeys operates.

you have the wrong definition of hacking
In English gentry, "hacking about" is the term for riding one's horse about with no particular intent. There's even a "hacking jacket" which is a particular tweed, distinct from hunting pinks, that one wears when "going hacking".
I suspect that it is this definition of hacking from where the computer related term derives.
is to model things in a manner as similar to the real world as possible...
first we model the fundamental particles
then photons, electrons, neutrons and protons
add in a few forces, gravity of the planets & stars, expansion of the universe that sort fo thing
evolve your target planet where your game is to take place
keep running the evolution software until your required habitats form
grow some simulated babies and in a simulation of the particular culture of your required characters and find those who are right and agree to be in your game
stage the game
or you could just build complicated decision trees that fool the gamer into seeing what he wants to see for considerably less input than modelling the whole universe.
Nothing to do with the Envelope, all to do the with the RFC822 message:
http://antispam.yahoo.com/domainkeys
"When each email is sent by an authorized end-user within the domain, the DomainKey-enabled email system automatically uses the stored private key to generate a digital signature of the message. This signature is then pre-pended as a header to the email."
"The DomainKeys-enabled receiving email system extracts the signature and claimed From: domain from the email headers and fetches the public key from DNS for the claimed From: domain."
This is good news for our roving buddy, all he needs is a way to sign the message himself.
This also means that you could sign and send the messages on *any* machine so long as you had the private key handy.
I wonder how long it will take for people to realise that their private key has been stolen and is being used to sign spam ?
Slashdot Mirror
how can one possibly do anything with all that data that comes in
They wait until Person A is under suspicion and then review their related data.
No need to pre-filter it.
Block level storage systems such as Venti reduce the storage required.
iirc both the authors of that paper moved to Google when Lucent lost the ability to fund the labs.
Surely any good journalist will then start to question every time MS gets a contract or makes a lawsuit go away who has been paid off for how much?
and what good will that do?
here we already have a blatant case where *everyone* knows "who has been paid off for how much", the consequences of which are
I bet they can even write it off against the pitifuly tax they pay.

There are also products that use the HTML Active X control (such as EditPlus and WinAmp I think) thus by-passing your hard work.

It's not the GIMP's interface that makes the difference, PS is just a VASTLY SUPERIOR program in every area, it's just as simple as that.
But that doesn't negate the general point that not being able to learn the interface in 5 mins is not a *necessary* requirement.
Sorry but you are totally wrong.
If I am going to use program A for the next 5 years to do the best work ever then investing 1 month in learning the UI is a low price worth paying.
you're missing the point

It is most likely being free on modded boxes
i paid for my xbox, I paid for xbox live, I paid for Halo2, that makes me a paying customer modchip or not, you might recall that was the question
" Are modding 'customers' paying customers? "
