That's not an option >they had with SPF. The sensible way for lists to change their behavior is to SIGN THE MAIL THEY SEND. People apparently seem to have trouble distinguishing between mail Bob sent directly to you, and mail that Bob sent to a list which decorated his message and then passed along to you. DKIM makes that easy to handle -- when the list signs its mail, you can reliably tell that no matter what's on the From line, this message is from the list so you can do whatever you do with list mail without having to worry about who sent it to the list in the first place, just like you do now. Ironically, this is also a situation that SPF handles adequately; lists invariably apply their own bounce addresses to do automated bounce management, so as far as SPF is concerned, mail from the list is from the list. Sender-Id doesn't work so good here, though. R's, John _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html
