What I meant is that any party who consciously alters from/subject or other 
components signed by DKIM has a duty to re-align things as well (by re-signing, 
or dropping the signature).

If nothing else, because this affects deliverability and it’s in the interest 
of an ML operator to ensure subscribers do get emails - no?

Do you disagree with the statement that a server processing a DKIM-signed email 
in ways which break the DKIM signature and still not taking action towards it 
is an (implicit) breach of the RFC?

Thanks
