This document provides an analysis of some threats against Internet

discusses the nature and location of the bad actors, what their
capabilities are, and what they intend to accomplish via their
attacks.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dkim-threats-00.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
