RE: [ietf-dkim] New Issue: Analyzing Failures: List of Possible Reasons

I don't think presenting dkim information pro-actively to the end user
serves any useful purpose. Unlike PGP the user doesn't have an easy way
to decode what the header is telling them. In a few specific cases I
will reject mail based on a lack of dkim signatures. We do not envision
using dkim to bypass anti-spam, anti-virus or anti phishing services we
provide. It will be very useful when a properly decoded dkim sig
contains objectionable material, we now know who we can complain to
instead of guessing. The only support calls I envision are the same ones
we get now, from organizations that wonder why their messages are
getting bounced. DKIM may add to that but not significantly,

Offlist:

Does it means you plan to use DKIM deterministically?  Reject at the
SMTP
level?
