things that are supposed to help peek back and see what the original
message said. Other things that immediately come to mind:
- wrap messages, like a single message digest
- DKIM unmunging hints like Ale has proposed
All of these share the characteristic that to be useful, they require
MUAs to do things they do not do now, so I don't see much reason to
put a lot of effort into any of them unless we see interest from
Language like 'wrap messages' typically means making the content inaccessible
except to a recipient that supports the wrapping mechanism.
I meant message/rfc822 MIME parts. I agree that some MUAs support them
better than others, despite them having been standardized 25 years ago.
Saying 'message digest' typically means a hash
No, I mean like a mailing list digest, you know, the one daily message
with all of the day's messages as message/rfc822 MIME parts. Same 25
years, same so-so support.
Changing DKIM is an infrastructure change, since it involves components in
the handling stream, rather than just the MUA.
That too, but if you want to recover the original unmunged message so you
know who to reply to, that involves the MUA.
The Author field is a pure, incremental value-add. It only requires MUA
support, ...
Well, yeah, just like the other two. I don't understand the point here.
