Folks,
I'm not sure whether this fits into SSP or not, since it does not
seem to require that a record be published. However...
It seems to me that if a message has a DKIM signature and the
signing domain matches the domain in the rfc2821.MailFrom command,
then it is safe to generate a bounce message to that address.
By 'safe' I mean that one can be confident that the mail will not
go to an unwitting victim of a spoofed address.
Am I missing something?
If the mail is sent by dick(_at_)earthlink(_dot_)net (or a virus on their
machine), with an envelope from address of jane(_at_)earthlink(_dot_)net out
through the DKIM stamping earthlink smarthost and you generate a
bounce, that bounce will go to Jane.
Cheers,
Steve
