I don't get this, I'm afraid.  What is the subject suffix length?

Sorry I wasn't too clear here.  It's largely the same idea as the DKIM body
length "l=" field above except for reformulated for the Subject header and
its mailing list mutations.  The original sender would encode a length of
the original subject say "s.l=<value>".  A receiver would only hash the
right most "s.l=<value>" length string when validating a Subject hash from
the original sender.  This assumes that mailing lists may prepend a string
typically for identification.


Oh, yeah. However, unless we store sl= as an additional DKIM tag, we'd need an extra header field such as Subject-Length. In that case, Original-Subject is much more straightforward.

Original-Subject also covers possible AW: to Re: translations.

Finally, the MLM prefix must be short. It is not acceptable to have an entire phrase followed by hundreds of white space before the original subject.


Best
