Not according to 4474.  The cert domain and From domain must match.


But that part COULD be changed, if one adequately described other acceptance rules. One could potentially also "compound @" so we have an @nostrum defined in the context of @eden. Something like a signed uunet route.

Of you could express it cryptographically. Well-Known-Root signs @eden; @eden signs @nostrum. Recipient can examine the cert and determine whether they trust the chain.

Yes, that's pretty much what I meant by "adequately described acceptance rules".

The question is how do you decide whether to trust @eden to sign @nostrum? There is no delegation tree like in ENUM, so it has to be done based on a trust relationship (possibly a contract) between you and @eden. That's what we'd have to describe to extend RFC 4474 transitively.
