Relative to DKIM's authentication model I'm asking for two things: one

information in addition to header and body information.  I'm asking 
for these because I know through long experience that sometimes it's 
important to know who originally sent a message, sometimes it's 
important to know who last sent a message, and sometimes it's 
important to know to whom the message was sent.


The question that gets asked here is: what problem are you trying to solve?

in effect, you're asking me to do the analysis for my threat model. *

it's a reasonable request, but not something I can do within the
timeframe that people seem to expect responses to email messages.

* because if I stop short of doing a fairly complete analysis, the group
will attack it for incompleteness.  if I provide a fairly complete
analysis the group will attack that too, but at least that attack will
be useful.
