plus syntax?

<consent token hash>+chuqui(_at_)plaidworks(_dot_)com?

Recipient user maintains a database of hashes with allowed addresses they'll accept that hash from. Since a user (like me, or like a list with monthly admin postings) might have more than one email address to send from legitimately, allowing a token to map to more than one address simplifies things. Allows users to manage access, revoke or modify consent, and allows some flexibility in the use of the token based on the real world. You could potentially flag some tokens as being filtered to a folder for review, while other tokens filtered to c/r and others to blacklist, based on why you generated them.

Given this, I think you could also create "good until" tokens, too, now that I think about it. Maybe re-invent the web site mailto with a token that's got some way of seeing when it was generated and can only be used for, say, 24 hours after generation. That'd solve most of the problems we see with role accounts without forcing everyone through c/r stuff. Spammers would have to scrape and spam in real time, which is still possible, but a lot harder.

Quite. My tendency is that we should sketch out a protocol by which the
subscription process can establish and maintain a consent token.
