RE: [ietf-dkim] "I sign everything" is not a useful policy

Your assertion in the subject is an opinion.  I find the statement below
to be useful.

I think we have a subtle point here.

"I sign everything so please discard unsigned mail apparently from me" could be useful to recipients.

Plain "I sign everything" isn't.

"I sign all": Your users and my business may be harmed by accepting
unverified mail claiming to originate from my domain. It is in our
mutual interest for you to not deliver such mail to your users.

I am an adult of voting age and accept the possibility that
deliverability of my traffic may reduce as a consequence.

If "I sign all" means anything at all, this is what it means.

R's,
John
