reject TPA-RFC-31 (team#40798) 

I currently don't see any service provider that can serve all of our
email needs at once, which is what I was hoping for in this proposal.
the emergency part of TPA-RFC-44 (#40981) was adopted, but the longer
part is postponed until we take into account the other requirements
that popped up during the evaluation. those requirements might or
might not require us to outsource email mailboxes, but given that:

 * we have more mail services to self-host than I was
   expecting (schleuder, mailman, possibly CiviCRM), and...

 * we're in the middle of the year end campaign and want to close
   project rather than start them

... I am rejecting this proposal in favor of a new RFC that will
discuss, yes, again, a redesign of our mail infrastructure, taking
into account the schleuder and mailman hosting, 24/7 mailboxes, mobile
support, and the massive requirement of CiviCRM mass mailings.
