Subject: RE: [spf-discuss] Processed-By (or Transmitted-By) header
concept
OK, so would another way to say this be that the Processed-By
concept is not
meant to be useful for authorization or authentication, but to be a
(somewhat) human readable log of what happened for
troublshooting or other
purposes and that the SUBMITTER identity is meant to be used for
authorization processing?
Yes, exactly!
OK. From that perspective it makes sense. I would also imagine that it
would be optional, but recommended.
I did not, from your original message, understand the purpose of
Processed-By. I'd recommend that in your draft(s) you be clear about what
it is intended to be useful for and what it's intended to NOT be useful for.
Thanks,
Scott Kitterman
