Yeah an attribute might be tidier, but Mail servers regularly add headers so that information can get shared. As I mentioned previously, messages on this listserv are added to email we send around.I think the grey line needs to be drawn based on whether or not the header will actually be used by another mail server.
What do X-Antivirus and X-spam-rating get used for outside of the servers that add them. It seems to me that certifying that a message is not spam and/or is virus free would require that
1) the certifying host be trusted by the receiving host
and 2) the certifying host sign the header
This is quite a lot of infrastructure to support, but may be useful moving forward. Probably not something that JAMES should spearhead, though.
