Re: OT Brainstorm: Email Validation among different systems

2007-05-02 15:38:03

PKI Sign and Encrypt the message body/list of addresses. Since the list is going to end up in an automated process, the need to do the decryption and signature verification is not that big an issue to build in. The Signature validates the list while the encryption protects the addresses themselves from interception of the message.


dkim.org.

or, perhaps, goodmailsystems.com -- as far as I know, they are the only vendor with a solution that includes rfc2821.RCPT-TO in the hashed data for the signature.

(Disclosure: they are a client.)
