Summary: This draft is ready for publication as a Proposed Standard.

Couple nits follows.

This is a well-written short draft that proposes a new email
header field called Archived-At.  This header is used to refer to
a particular message at an archived location.

Nit 1) The opening sentence of S3.2 does not contribute much more
 than the section title itself does.  As such, it can be removed
 safely.

Nit 2) S4 contains three security implications.  Adequate
 defenses are provided for the second and third security attacks,
 but not the first one (mentioned in the first paragraph.)  Are
 there any defenses against the first attack?  If so, please
 consider stating them succintly as you have done for the others,
 even if it means simply pointing the reader to STD66.  If not,
 then just saying so provides enough of a documentiary evidence
 that an attack of this sort is feasible (compared to being caught
 flat-footed, it is often better to be aware that an attack exists
 even if no defenses are known.)

Thanks,
