Ned,
It would be ideal to have an RFC with the title "How to write a
Threats Analysis", but no such thing has been written. We do have
three simple questions from the relevant AD, and I don't believe Russ
has given them to us as busy-work... he's simply not that type of
person.
And after hearing people at the BoF speak of DKIM as bounce
protection, I can understand the broader IETF community asking us to
go through this exercise.
So I wonder if this threats analysis would benefit from a list of
things DKIM is not designed to guard against.
