[At-Large] News gTLDs and e-mail

[Jeffrey A. Williams]

Michele and all,

  This was to be, and should be expected, as the decision was not
well delineated in Paris.  Nor have IDN gTLD's been very well
flushed out to date.  And the fast tracking of some IDN gTLD's
is reasonably worrisome for a number of reasons such as UCE
increases initially and likely for the long term forseeable future,
Security concerns to service providers and their customers,
and other forms of Email dilivered/based abusive activities.

  And btw, I have also seen/read nznog, nanog, ect., some very excellent
insight as to the impact vis a vi Email and P2P.  Many Service providers
will the making some significant routing table changes and throtteling
decisions in respect to IDN gTLD's that will with some larger access
and service providers mean not routing IDN gTLD traffic, or significantly
throtteling such traffic as purely a matter of security.
