I added the requirement to 4.9.3. That way all of the certificate problem 
reporting requirements are contained in a single section.

I think it’s probably cleaner to put a requirement for an email address for 
problem reports in 1.5.2 where it can have a SHALL.  For some CAs it’s going to 
be the same address as the one that’s already required there.

 

Implied requirements through carefully written definitions are easy to miss.

OK. then I agree.

Under this change, email is not the only way to manage Certificate Problem 
Reports. The change requires CAs to support at least email, but the CA may 
support any other methods they want to manage.  Regardless of potential spam, 
requiring CAs to manage one mailing list doesn’t seem unreasonable considering 
how difficult/annoying other methods are.

The problem I see with mandating an email address as the only way to report a 
problem to the CA is that mailboxes are subject to spamming. Our certificate 
problem reporting mailbox is being targeted to spam more and more, lately, and 
it is not always easy and quick to tell apart real problem reports and spam.

I think that if we want to mandate that the CA's Problem Reporting
Mechanisms include at minimum an email address, we should say that in
the relevant section, rather than slip it in here.
 
I would be in support of such a change. :-) We are considering it for
Mozilla policy. People currently find it too difficult to send reports
to multiple CAs, having to cope with lots of different mechanisms.
