Re: STARTTLS anyone?

This is one of the most educational and thumbs-up-worthy posts I've seen on BBR in awhile (maybe I'm just not looking in the right places).

Incredibly useful, FO.

And likewise, I'm in the exact same boat you are. I too have the same qualms with coughing up large sums of money for SSL certs -- which would most definitely apply to Yahoo!'s new idea, albeit for a different technology -- and likewise have no desire to pay big bucks for CA-signed certs. I guess it depends on how much it costs.

Although nothing is going to stop a spammer from paying for a CA-signed cert. Even if it was US$1000, they'd pay it to continue to spam. You know how it goes... so really, what is Yahoo!s idea going to truly get us?
