In another thread on mailman-developers, I discussed organizational domains with Lindsay, so I assumed he knew. In summary, every domain has a corresponding organizational domains which may be the same or a "super" domain. In short, the organizational domain is the domain that might be found in whois. For "common" tlds like .com, .org, net, .edu, etc. the organizational domain is the top two levels. E.g. the organizational domain for some.sub.domain.example.com is example.com, but it's much more complicated than that.

No. I could have slipped, but when I write From: domain, I mean the domain of the address in the From: header (That's what DMARC is all about - verifying that the message actually came from the domain of the address in the From: header). If I mean the domain of the envelope from, I try to use that phrase, but in the context of DMARC that domain is only relevant for SPF and only if it "aligns" with the From: domain. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
