Viruthagiri -

It does not appear that you require anything from this community, as it appears from reading your white paper that your 
proposed solution relies upon existing Internet protocols and extensions (e.g. SMTP, SPF, DNS, DNS TXT RR types, etc.)  
 

One of the nice things about the Internet is that folks can generally innovate without seeking permission from anyone – 
the protocols are mostly agnostic about the things running over them, so you can implement and promote your solution 
today – nothing prevents you from moving ahead, and if you have created something that is truly valuable, then you 
should have no trouble finding investors, customers, and partners for your proposed solution.  If your proposed 
solution doesn’t prove to have a useful return on investment, then that instead shall become apparent. 

Either way, until such time your solution is deployed widely enough to significantly impact network operations, it’s 
unlikely to be a particularly relevant topic for discussion here.
