This has nothing to do with PRA and its support for
Resent-From and/or Resent-Sender.

If there is an SSP for "A", why apply it to Sender "a(_at_)A",
but not Resent-From "a(_at_)A" ?

Can you use an SSP for "B" and 2822-From "b(_at_)B", if the
mail was actually Resent-From "a(_at_)A" ?

Can I suggest making concrete proposals, aimed at moving
towards consensus, rather then asking open ended questions
that lead to lots of repetition and lots and lots of mail?

Really - it'll lead to less hassle for us all,

If this may help, and Michael can comment and clarify, an old pseudo-code
presented here (or in the old list) did include consideration for the
2822.Sender header:

$outsideheaders = "From, Sender";
$from = ; // 2822 From: address in msg

dkim_bindToOutsideHdrs () {
   foreach ($hdr in $outsideheaders) {
      if (dkim_bindToHdr ($hdr) == BIND) {
         if ($hdr != "From") {
            $policy = dkim_signerPolicy (domainpart ($from));
            if ($policy == strict || $policy == nomail)
                return FAIL;
            else
                return PASS;
         } else
             return PASS;
      }
   }
   return NEUTRAL;
}

In layman terms (pending Michael's confirmation)

    The SSP policy was ALWAYS done on the 2822.From domain
    but ONLY when the DKIM-Signature d= tag was bound to
    the 2822.Sender domain.

It was my contention that the SSP should ALWAYS be done against the
2822.From regardless of how DKIM-Signature domain was bounded.

It was from my analysis of Michael's initial pseudo-code that started my
efforts in producing the Policy vs. Verification Result tables and the
genesis of the more restrictive policy concepts.

Hope this provide some insight.
