Actually, I don't believe you when you say you have no desire to solve the problem. Your referenced comment suggests otherwise.
Taking the piss out of the mailpile folks is probably professionally satisfying, on some level, but I think you have to admit that, once your done, we're still left with a fundamental problem. Your objections are perfectly correct, but surely you can appreciate the frustration when folks who should know what they're doing can only contribute a, "well, someone else should design a new email system with these features." Thanks for the help.
Yes, it is not perfect. Yes, traffic analysis is still a problem. Yes, it has not yet been vetted (because it doesn't really exist yet, which I think you have to admit is a pretty good reason). Still, it's better than flapping your arms about, helpfully declaring, "THE PROBLEM IS UNSOLVABLE!!"
