[ietf-dkim] RFC 4871: Signature Expiration

2008-01-11 13:03:53
I wonder why the signature expiration date (x-param) was included in the signature itself. If there was an optional expiration date contained in the _domainkey DNS entry besides the public key instead, a mail admin could react in the short-term to e.g. abuse of the according private key without interfering the validation of signatures before this expiration date.
