Abstract:
The address to which email is delivered might be different than any
of the addresses shown in any of the content header fields that were
created by the email's author. For example, the address used by the
email transport service is provided separately, through an envelope
SMTP "RCPT TO" command. Before final delivery, handling can entail a
sequence of submission/delivery events, using different destination
addresses that lead to the recipient. Also, the delivery process can
produce local address transformations.
It can be helpful for a message to have a common way to record each
delivery in such a sequence, and to include each address used for
that recipient, such as for analyzing the path a message has taken,
for loop detection, or for formulating the author's address in a
reply message. This document defines a header field for this
information.
Email handling information discloses details about the email
infrastructure, as well as about a particular recipient; this can
raise possible privacy concerns. A header field such as this is not
automatically assured of widespread use. Therefore this is being
published as an Experiment, looking for constituency and for
operational utility. The document is produced through the
Independent RFC stream and was not subject to the IETF's approval
process.
