Any subsequent problems are irrelevant unless FedEx, the owner of fedex.com considers them to be relevant. That is what folk complaining don't get: you don't have the right to use your employers email or a public email provider's email any way you want. The domain name owner makes the rules. As Craster insists: My domain, my rules. If you want to make the rules then get your own domain. I think that is something most IETF participants know how to do. In the medium term, lets kill the stupidity of mailing lists with a protocol that works. NNTP was originally designed to replace mailing lists. It actually works quite well at that. The only problem was the IT-Dictator mindset that underlies it: newsgroups have to be approved by the Commune! The idea that newsgroups work by the mail client PULLING a list of unread messages and then PULLING those that are to be read is the best architecture for newsgroups. I am currently using 8Gb of my primary Gmail account space, 80% of that is my mailing list mail. Google and Yahoo could both save tens of millions of dollars worth of hard drives a year with a better protocol, thats incentive to invest. The only points that need to change are the mailing list programs need to offer a very simple network API and the clients need to accept it. The second is not so difficult to deploy for the 90% of webmail users. _______________________________________________ dmarc mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dmarc
