(d) It seems to me that the cases this proposal addresses are

of accepting mail" and "invalid for mail" (which don't mean
quite the same thing).   Especially since there is not an
easily-located WG discussion, the document should at least
explain its choice.


If consensus is to register a new code as suggested, one could certainly
help himself to a cloning of the useful parts of
draft-ietf-appsawg-email-auth-codes, now in Last Call.
