Genuine curiosity question here for those who were around at the beginning...
Why is the mechanism called "Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance" and not "Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Disposition"? Perhaps a better question, why is "conformance" in the name of the mechanism? I ask because I'm writing up some stuff for internal use, and I got curious as to how conformance is defined or explained in RFC 7489, and well, it's not. The word appears five times in RFC 7489, and each occurrence is in the context of spelling out the full name of the mechanism. I am not looking to change the name of the mechanism; I'm just genuinely curious how the name was arrived at. -- *Todd Herr * | Technical Director, Standards & Ecosystem *e:* todd.h...@valimail.com *p:* 703-220-4153 *m:* 703.220.4153 This email and all data transmitted with it contains confidential and/or proprietary information intended solely for the use of individual(s) authorized to receive it.
