     That would be fine, Mike.  Do you object to my posting this message on 
     the electronic exchange listserve?

     How long is the "or so".  I think the big issue is handling key 
     updates.  In my opinion, if we consent to mandating telephone 
     confirmation without much more discussion, it would not go past next 
     meeting.  If we start looking at some of the more creative options, it 
     may take longer.
     
     >>2. Given that we are revising the Reference Manual for Release 4, 
     does it makes sense to combine the revised POP3 addendum into the 
     CompuServe section of the manual? And if yes, I assume we will revise 
     the manual to permit either CompuServe or POP3, right?
     <<
     If I understand your question, yes, yes.  This is in line with our 
     very brief discussion last week.  Maybe we should talk about this one 
     in real-time, though.
     
     >>Finally, to help make sure Chapter 9 is technically accurate, would 
     someone from the EE team be willing to help serve as a technical

     This seems like a good idea.
     
     Thanks, Mike.

Scott: If time permits on next week's EE call, could you raise the following 
questions to the group? Given the ticking clock for Release 4, I need to
get the CompuServe/POP3 issues resolved in the next week or so--if the 
Reference Manual is to be on-target for final review at the September 
CommonLine meeting. My questions are...
     
1. Does the group feel that the information in the addendum can be 
finalized in the next week or so? If not, we may need to separate the 
revision to the addendum from the Release 4 publication. (I was hoping to 
fold the addendum into Chapter 9 of the Reference Manual--see Question 
2).
     
2. Given that we are revising the Reference Manual for Release 4, does 
it makes sense to combine the revised POP3 addendum into the 
CompuServe section of the manual? And if yes, I assume we will revise 
the manual to permit either CompuServe or POP3, right?
     
3. Finally, to help make sure Chapter 9 is technically accurate, would 
someone from the EE team be willing to help serve as a technical 
reviewer for both Chapter 9 and Chapter 10 (Testing/Certification)?
