Privacy aside, RFC 5965 provides for having "Original-Rcpt-To" fields in message/feedback-report.  Linkedin uses them. Currently, Original-Rcpt-To's are missing from the example in Appendix A.  I'll add some.

You cited RFC5965, but aren't we building off of RFC6591 in Section 4? That spec doesn't mention Original-Rcpt-To: - though it does mention Original- Envelope-Id and Original-Mail-From:, so it seems safe to say they knew it was available if they wanted it.


RFC6591 /extends/ RFC5965. It adds some new fields and modifies the requirements of some of the original fields. The remaining fields are unchanged and retain the same name and requirements. User-Agent:, for example, is treated similarly; RFC6591 doesn't mention it except in the example.

I don't think the OpenDMARC milter includes that header by default, and looking at historical reports, it doesn't look like Hotmail or NetEase included it either.

It is optional, so they don't need to include it. Linkedin uses it, so I know Frank Martin is subscribed to this list (for another example of how private data is leaked; Original-Rcpt-To is just one of the three places in a report where his email address appears.)


Even if the consensus is that we wanted to include Original-Rcpt-To: as optional in Section 4, and in the Appendix, as an example of reports being sent "in the wild," I think we want to make sure situation's like what Todd presented are covered by Section 7.


There is no need to mention that Original-Rcpt-To: is optional in Section 4, because it is the same requirement as RFC5965. If we were to change it, we could specify in Section 4, for example, that it is NOT RECOMMENDED.
