[mail-vet-discuss] reasonspec?

2008-02-28 15:09:37
Would anyone be interested in having an optional "reasonspec" that has 
actual ABNF support? Right now we're all using a comment between the 
methodspec and propspec. I'm suggesting adding reason= between the two, 
with the value in quoted-printable format:

      header = "Authentication-Results:" [CFWS] authserv-id
               [CFWS [version]]
               *( ";" methodspec
                        *( CFWS reasonspec )
                        *( CFWS propspec ) [CFWS] ) CRLF

      reasonspec = "reason=" dkim-quoted-printable

where dkim-quoted-printable is defined in RFC 4871.

The examples would become:

  Authentication-Results: mail-router.example.com;
     auth=pass reason=cram-md5 smtp(_dot_)auth=sender(_at_)example(_dot_)com;
     spf=pass smtp(_dot_)mailfrom=sender(_at_)example(_dot_)com

  Authentication-Results: auth-checker.example.com;
     sender-id=hardfail header(_dot_)from=sender(_at_)example(_dot_)com;
     dkim=pass reason=good%20signature 
header(_dot_)i=sender(_at_)example(_dot_)com

  Authentication-Results: chicago.example.com;
     dkim=pass reason=good%20signature 
header(_dot_)i=(_at_)mail-router(_dot_)example(_dot_)net;
     dkim=hardfail reason=bad%20signature 
header(_dot_)i=(_at_)newyork(_dot_)example(_dot_)com
