You are referring to a relay forwarding of an email address to another address. But to get to this node, the initial path did reach its destination. The author had no clue that a forwarding of the address would be taken place. Same wave length? If so, a DKIM verify domain who would be receiving an email targeted for its MDA would verify the message, and need be, then forward it hopefully to another DKIM ready domain. > This may create a exploitable conflict for generating bounces, or may > cause important messages, where added security matters, to be lost or > rejected.

I am not sure Doug if you were describing a new solution or explaining why it won't work. I just need to see why it won't work. --- HLS _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html
