The IESG has received a request from the Domain Keys Identified Mail WG
(dkim) to consider the following document:
- 'DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) Signatures'
<draft-ietf-dkim-rfc4871bis-12.txt> as a Draft Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org mailing lists by 2011-06-29. Exceptionally, comments
may be
sent to iesg(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.
Abstract
DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) permits a person, role, or
organization that owns the signing domain to claim some
responsibility for a message by associating the domain with the
message. This can be an author's organization, an operational relay
or one of their agents. DKIM separates the question of the identity
of the signer of the message from the purported author of the
message. Assertion of responsibility is validated through a
cryptographic signature and querying the signer's domain directly to
retrieve the appropriate public key. Message transit from author to
recipient is through relays that typically make no substantive change
to the message content and thus preserve the DKIM signature.
This memo obsoletes RFC4871 and RFC5672.
