Yes, that i know, but i could submit the smtp-tls-srv-06 draft three minutes before the DKIM draft. And if i try it now, idnits waves it through just fine, but submitting the draft fails with the same error as Sunday night, This submission has been cancelled, modification is no longer possible. as well as 2025-07-22 Submission rejected: Error during xml2rfc prep: ['**/draft-nurpmeso-dkim-access-control-diff-changes-07.xml(24): Error: Invalid document before running preptool.'] So, something in the tooling is wrong, or some regular expression is set somewhere that causes rejection. |> By accepting this draft the IETF recognizes that certain |> developments of the past two decades mutilated the existing |> email infrastructure to the point where it stopped functioning. |> Without malicious intent [.] | |I'm not sure this needs to be said, but this is a meaningless assertion; |given the datatracker will accept and publish whatever you send it, I don't |think any such recognition by the IETF attaches. I have changed "accepting" to "adopting". I still think, as i said in all-moderators-of-the-world-private communication i think it was, that the IETF would do *itself* a favourite if all the grief of the administrators, *any* SMTP MTA operator mostly, shut-down service operators, and all that, is worth at least a single official sentence. Which is why i included that sentence. Shall the group adopt that approach -- it would likely cause changing all "SMTP rejection" to "DKIM signature verification failure", and likely other changes -- it *can* of course be removed again. But i would not do that. |-MSK Thanks to you again, also for unbreaking automatized rejections!
