<abstract>
<t>Experience with processing mail on the Arpanet has pointed up many addressing issues, including:</t>
<t>1. People's names are not the same as their addresses;
				2. Mailing lists can get quite long;
				3. To allow responding, messages often need to carry all of their mailing list with them;
				4. It would be very useful to be able to send mail to files other than the person's primary mailbox.</t></abstract></front>
