The kind of identification I want is to know that if you send one spam with this signature that I will be able to recognize all subsequent emails coming from you and reject them. As long as you can also send with a different signature that won't be the case, and I don't think anyone is ready to accept any kind of authority that could force you to only use a single identification or be able to validate that. And if they could, what would happen when your relationship with example.com changes? --- Les Mikesell [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca MIMEDefang mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
