Felix commented on JDKIM-50:
----------------------------

Firstly, it's nice to see that there is already something happening :)

Regarding the standard: RFC 8463 is a proposed standard. This is the stage in 
which most RFCs remain in the standardization process. Note that there are only 
125 ["Internet 
Standards"|https://www.rfc-editor.org/search/?status=Internet+Standard]. Even 
RFC 5321 (SMTP) is only a "Draft Standard". [RFC 7127 (a Best Current 
Practice)|https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7127#section-3.1] states 
that "A Proposed Standard specification is stable, has resolved known design 
choices, has received significant community review, and appears to enjoy enough 
community interest to be considered valuable." What they may be missing is an 
implementation, so I would argue that the state as a proposed standard should 
encourage people to implement it, not prevent it ;)

> RFC 8463 mandates that verifiers must support verification of Ed25519 DKIM 
> signatures. Additionally, it would be nice if James would also support 
> creating Ed25519 DKIM signatures.
>  
> If I understand the source code correctly, James currently only supports RSA 
> for both.
