So now we have a registry entry for the "body" ptype which isn't deprecated, but possibly no live uses of it. The working group didn't discuss taking any action to either "fix" or bolster this, as its focus was elsewhere (specifically the changes needed to support the DMARC/ARC work). I'm inclined to leave it as-is, possibly with a remark capturing what I just said here. If no uses of it appear before someone decides to revise this again, we can formally deprecate it. > Section 3 > > > > > > of the validity of the connection's identity using DNS.

That is, sort of, the ARC model -- you decide whose external results you're going to believe. About to post the new version. -MSK
