Re: subject_prefix on IETF Discuss?

DKIM is designed for to deal with one posting and one delivery.  Mailing
lists take delivery and re-post.  For almost all scenarios, DKIM was not
intended to survive re-posting.

I wasn't referring to the post from the originator to the list, I was
referring to the message posted from the list.

The list signs the message on the way out, so the ietf.org signature
verifies.  If the original sender signed the message, his signature
won't verify but (to collapse several years of flamage on the DKIM
list) that's not a problem.

I still don't think we should add subject tags for the aforementioned
autotrofigiaskylousphagic reasons, but DKIM signs perfectly well
either way.

R's,
John
