:I am interested in understanding and possibly fixing the security issue
:that seems to be a problem with using sendsys to send an asynchronous

    Could you elaborate on this?  I don't know of any current security
    issues with sendsys, unless you are refering the potential for memory
    exhaustion.  sendsys is currently not used for anything real.
