Does that mean that existing signature standards will not
guarantee that the subject or the CC fields have not been
tampered with? Is that acceptable? And how about the date,
that could have legal significance in some cases, why
should it not be protected? Also the From and and the
In-Reply-To fields can be quite significant. The intrinsic
meaning of a message with the text "Yes, I agree" can be
quite different depending on the value of the In-Reply-To
header.
