Folks, To claim that one signs all mail is to imply that anyone receiving mail from them should see a valid signature. Mail sent through list servers invites the problem of receivers getting mail that does not have the promised valid signature, since intermediaries are re-posting the message and are free to make whatever changes they see fit. Hence, saying -all for mail that goes through intermediaries which might affect the signature is inviting receivers to treat the received mail with hostile prejudice. d/ -- Dave Crocker Brandenburg InternetWorking bbiw.net _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html
