Re: Originator-ID-Asymmetric and X.500

Bob,

It's not that simple.  Yes, it's desirable to have a protocol that
does not *require* the network and which does not *require* the mail
headers.  And yes, the headers outside of the envelope cannot be
trusted.  However, it does turn out to be highly useful to be able to
include the headers inside the envelope.  the existing PEM specs are
strangely lacking in this regard.  (Our forthcoming MIME-PEM spec
makes this easier to accommodate.)
