Preference should be given to the author domain explicitly authorized resigners, how ever that black box functionality is achieved. Currently, there are three DNS-based authorization proposals on the table. From Murray's follow-up comments, the DKIM-delegate is basically an optimizer to avoid doing a lookup. If this can address the basic protocol fault failures the DNS lookup proposals addresses, the I would like see how that is done. I plan to study the draft more.
The most basic protocol fault is when no signatures, no extra new headers are available -- the legacy operation. Here the lookup is required. If not, the bad guy loophole is simply to remain in legacy mode. They don't need to think about trying to find a fake signature. -- Hectorb Santos http://www.santronics.com > On Jun 10, 2014, at 10:25 AM, Dave Crocker <dcroc...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> On 6/10/2014 4:19 PM, Murray S.
