What is the difference between the certified email protocol and email protocol?
Q. In Certified email protocol scheme,when the sender sends any message to the receiver,the the receiver cant get the message until a proof of delivery is submitted to the receiver.This is achieved by using verifiable encryption of signatures.
Asked by Saranya - Mon Dec 22 00:00:37 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Certifying e-mail is when a company pays to be on a list of companies with a 3rd party that declare themselves to not be spammers. Their e-mail is then allowed to bypass many ISP spam filters. The certified e-mail service requires that they make a deposit up front. If they spam then they lose the deposit. The goal is to make it expensive for spammers to spam via certified e-mail and therefore not worth the effort to try and get around that service. A secondary goal is for you to have confidence that any certified e-mail that you receive is from who it says it is from, and that it is not a spam, virus, or phishing attempt.

How do you get a serial interface and line protocol to be up on a cisco router?
Q. I have two cisco routers connected with serial cables and they are being configured with a console cable. I set the ip address of both routers 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0 and then run a no shut. I exit to exec mode and run a show interface and all I get is Serial is up, line protocol is down. How do I get the line protocol to also be up?

A. Your IP address are in a different address range. The address you need are: 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 and on the other is, 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0 That makes 256 - 2 = 254 hosts in this range. Remember a class A is net.host.host.host class B is net.net.host.host class C is net.net.net.host

What happens if a country does not follow the Kyoto protocol?
Q. Okay, I'm doing a really dumb project about the Kyoto Protocol. Now, are there any rules in the protocol? What happens if a country does not obey them? Help!

A. Nothing will happen. Even the countries that did sign aren't living up to the standards. (The US did not sign - yet).
