Re: [ietf-dkim] DKIM and mailing lists

I don't disagree with you, but it is important to state why ADSP fails,
because mailing lists keep RFC5322.From and as the IETF could put it, if
it is widely used then it has to be considered as a standard. ADSP can
hardly change standards, nor any other email policy.

digest mode where it replaces it by the list-owner(?) email.

This is why ADSP fails, otherwise if the RFC5322.From was replaced we
would have no issues with ADSP.

As I tried to say tactfully in the draft, mailing lists have worked just
fine for 40 years, so if DKIM or ADSP don't work with mailing lists, it's
not because the lists are broken.

ADSP seems to be carrying on the SPF tradition of claiming that it's
everyone else's fault that it doesn't work.
