Who do you feel we need to hear from at this stage to gauge interest?

That's how I see it.  The key is that Y *validates* the DKIM signature

Where is this going to be supported?  That is, how widespread does anyone
believe that support for this scenario will be?  Why?

I'm not sure if you were asking this as a rhetorical question in an attempt
to imply that such adoption would be low, or if you actually expected some of
us who may have non-public knowledge of such plans to disclose them to this
public mail list, or if you were soliciting speculation.  In any event, I can
only speculate.


I meant the question quite seriously.

When trying to specify anything, it's important to be clear about who is the 
target for adopting it and how motivated they will be and how feasible 
adoption 
will be within a useful timeframe.

If the specification is only intended for Yahoo and Google and there are good 
signs they will adopt it, then fine.

If the goal is broader adoption, then Yahoo and Google can actually be 
misleading examples, since they are not representative of the wider mailing 
list 
management software or operations community.
