[ietf-dkim] NEW ISSUE: SSP-02: Policy Scope

2008-02-13 14:12:22
The current assumption used when asserting DKIM policy is that this policy might apply across _all_ protocols used to carry messages that might contain DKIM signatures. Either DKIM policy records need to declare the scope of the protocols covered by the policy, or the label used to discover a policy should employ different labels.

Add:

Policy assertions for _SSP records are limited to messages exchanged by SMTP. When other protocols are used to receive messages, the appropriate policy should be applied upon receipt, and/or the protocol should be tracked within the message. One method for such tracking could be implemented using Authenticated-Results headers.
