The difference being that this is not a regular change via an authenticated
user in the end-users web interface, but an exceptional change through a
FAXed change request that (as stated) can be all too easily forged.

I think the FAXed requests should be bogged down as much as possible.
Possibly even requiring a payment so that OpenSRS can spend some additional
time verifying the change.

The problem with most the solutions proposed to date assume that the
RSP/reseller is active in the management of the domain and fully aware of
any and all changes that are made by the domain owner.

Under the OpenSRS system that simply is not true.

OpenSRS simply does not give the RSP/reseller much of a role in the managing
of the domain names.  All we can do is collect and submit the fees to
OpenSRS from the domain owner and request OpenSRS send passwords to the
domain owner if they lose their password.

If it is a hosting client then we would have information on his current
status.  In case of doubt with hosting clients we ask for the last four
digits of the credit card number used.   But if he is just one of the many
who use us to register the domain name and then either park it or host it
elsewhere we would not be involved in the management process for the domain
name.

We still have a few domain names with BulkRegister.com.  At one time when a
domain name was transferred away from BulkRegister.com they would send us an
email asking us to verify the request from our client, giving us just a few
days to verify the information.  Very few of these clients ever responded to
our emails asking if they did in fact wish to transfer the domain name to
another registrar.  BulkRegister discontinued this practice so I assume they
received as few responses as we received.

So I don't think these alternative proposals will work.
