Most DKIM software i know already parse From: in order to select keys and more. (The one i know which does not, an OpenSMTPD filter, can have only one configuration at a time, if i recall correctly.) This needs the same fully-fledged RFC 5322 parser that is needed for To: and Cc:, and if only to properly fail for "more than one address in From:". (But yes, email address parsing is a hairy thing, if to be done really right. With fingers pointing everywhere.) --steffen | |Der Kragenbaer, The moon bear, |der holt sich munter he cheerfully and one by one |einen nach dem anderen runter wa.ks himself off |(By Robert Gernhardt) _______________________________________________ Ietf-dkim mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
