That you (as domain owner) can suddenly try to decree that I
cannot resend your old unsigned mail to Eric is preposterous
and a design issue in SSP.
Actually, it is a design issue in DKIM. If Hector wants to prevent you
resending his messages to Eric, all he has to do is to include the
relevant "Resent-*" headers within the scope off his signature (which
amounts to a declaration that there are none). So if you then resend them
to Eric, Eric will find that Hector's signature no longer works (and, of
course, Hector's SSP=strict :-( ).
