Yes, but the boilerplate doesn't help. From the second paragraph of "Status of this Memo": Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). Note that other groups may also distribute working documents as Internet-Drafts. So it's an IETF document in addition to possibly being someone else's. -Jim _______________________________________________ dmarc mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dmarc
