Abstract

This paper introduces æ-mail, a phase-governed semantic communication protocol designed for use in integrity-critical systems. Conventional messaging mechanisms treat communication as a content-neutral transport operation, allowing messages to implicitly assert urgency, authority, or actionability regardless of system state. Æ-mail reframes communication as a governed interaction subject to explicit integrity and stability constraints.
