Sorry. What I meant to say was "get rid of sender addresses", as in client addresses. Both hostname and IP. Today, where most people use SMTP relays, the relay should not include sender address from authenticated senders in mail headers. They can keep a local mapping, say of Message-ID to sender, as long as necessary, but I don't see any reason to include that data as "world readable" in the mail headers. Gmail doesn't do it, for example, and rightly so. As a counter-example, Postfix makes it artificially hard, and it should be its default. --Mo _______________________________________________ perpass mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/perpass
