Question - is the emailing of a content to the IETF deemed to create a legally enforceable submission?

The reason I bring this up is this work by John Gregory (an Attorney for

the Policy Group in the Canadian Prime Ministers office) on when eSign
is binding and when it is not.

The problem I am having is that there is no eSign process for IP based
on an emailing with no commentary for submission and well... it means
that NoteWell probably doesnt work the way we think it does.
