I wish this were true. Were it me speaking, I'd suggest that they start looking for ADSP records without acting on them, and draw their own conclusions. > * BUT otherwise its useless in its current state. Useless for which purpose? From the rest of the message it sounds like you're primarily thinking about discussion-type mailing lists, which -- while a popular topic here recently -- are not the only kind of mail DKIM can be applied to. http://www.maawg.org/sites/maawg/files/news/MAAWG_Email_Authentication_Paper_2008-07.pdf is a very good overview of the theory and applicability of message sender authentication, though some of the terms may be a couple years out of date. I'd suggest starting there. _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html
