True, but even if you had that information you'll likely find that most of the vendors that had bugs in their implementations will fix them before long, especially when fully-functional open source solutions (such as this one) are out there so the answers are easily available. For example, when I found a bug in someone else's reply, I walked over to where they were sitting, explained the test I ran and the flaw I found, and told them what to do to come into compliance. At the same time, we've agreed (for now) not to announce which implementations did particularly well during the testing. I think if some vendor has a long-lived bug beyond this week's event which causes validation problems with all the other implementations, word will get out pretty fast and they'll either fix it fast or suffer market consequences. Due diligence of customers using some kind of live testing is easily achieved since several big vendors are now adding DKIM support (e.g. GMail) and there are public autoresponders run by several of the vendors. You can trivially try before you buy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
