No it does not. The relationship between DMARC and DKIM (and SPF) is like the relationship between TCP and IP. TCP does not 'bring reliability and congestion control to IP'. Rather, TCP /uses/ IP as a transfer component to the TCP reliability and congestion control framework that TCP creates. DMARC creates an authorization framework for the rfc5322.From (author) field. It uses DKIM and SPF for some authentication components to the DMARC framework. This is a fundamentally different relationship than what you are asserting. Your statement confuses roles and relationships. > The truth here is that DMARC is going to be a de-facto DKIM 2.0.
