Abstract
Email is one of the most important of the Internet services. As a very large, fast growing, Internet Service Provider, EarthLink requires a robust and powerful email architecture that will support rapid expansion. This paper describes such an architecture, its motivations, its future, and the difficulties in implementing a service on this scale.
