Not at all. You are now objecting to something other than what I originally proposed. It would be the opposite for the reasons you say and more. The point is to provide a mechanism to facilitate a reply to the original author when desired (reply-to is problematic since it's rather unconditional). There is no need to display it. To do so would be contradictory and confusing. Scott K _______________________________________________ dmarc mailing list dmarc@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dmarc
