Re: Email direct from IBM i without relay (was: New lower cost IBM i announced)

The best is for every device to have its own valid IP and not depend on 
NAT or relays.  If a light bulb has connectivity to Internet, and its 
own address, it should have a simplified TCP IP stack that only allows 
to turn it on, off, dim, eventually change colors, but the light bulb 
should not be able to send mail.
