[Asrg] 6. Proposals - "No Soliciting" SMTP Extension

2003-09-04 19:13:33
From the following Internet draft (http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-malamud-no-soliciting-00.txt) defining two SMTP extensions:


3.1 SYSTEM-WIDE-NO-SOLICITING
   The SYSTEM-WIDE-NO-SOLICITING extension is a simple Boolean flag,
   indicating that no soliciting is in effect for all messages delivered
   to this system.  It is equivalent to the sign on the door of an
   office building announcing a company-wide policy.


3.2 PER-MESSAGE-NO-SOLICITING
   The PER-MESSAGE-NO-SOLICITING extension specifies that each MAIL FROM
   command must identify if this message is a solicitation.

And a header:

3.3 Solicitation Mail Header
   As specified in RFC 2822,[23] a new header field "Solicitation" is
   defined, which has only one value "TRUE":
          To: Coupon Clipper 
<coupon_clipper(_at_)trusted(_dot_)resource(_dot_)org>
          From: Spam King <savebigbucks(_at_)hotmail(_dot_)com>
          Solicitation: TRUE

The purpose being:

4. Hooks for ISPs and Other Policy Makers
   This proposal is not meant to "solve" the spam problem, but offers
   some tools that can be used by policy makers, be they governments
   defining laws or Internet Service Providers defining appropriate use
   policies.
