Re: [spf-discuss] DKIM-SSP integration SPF

The problem is:
Before you can get an alliance, both parties need to want the alliance.

I am not sure what real benefit SPF has for the alliance, other then adding the overhead of DKIM. SPF has a goal, and it accomplishes it, existing broken forwarding not withstanding.

As far as DKIM side wanting the alliance, I cannot speak for the DKIM folks, but I think one could certainly examine what they would have to benefit, and if their belief is that they are already the end all and be all of a solution, I don't think it will happen.

Did this mail get out? or is no one interesting in pursuing this SPF/DKIM
future world?

My point of view is that we will add many options to customers.  We
currently offer:

  SMTP LEVEL:

     FILTER (Rule Based White/Black List Filter Scripting)
     DNSRBL
     SPF
     CBV

  SMTP DATA LEVEL:

     MAILFILTER (Heuristics Scripting)


DKIM-SSP as a payload concept will be added to the SMTP DATA LEVEL.   Other
systems will have post SMTP implementations.

The question, if any, is there relationship between SPF and DKIM-SSP? If so,
what is that?

SPFers,

If it has not already been done, I think it is fast approaching
the time the SPF community develop a clear picture on how it
will accept and live in a future DKIM-SSP world.

SPF includes administrators, developers and vendors and together, we
should
work out the logic of how SPF can work with DKIM:

    - how it can make DKIM-SSP better,
    - how DKIM-SPP can make SPF better.

If this has been discussed, chatted, or debated, we should pound it out
and
document it into a official SPF-DKIM-SSP Integration IETF I-D document.

Unless anyone else wants to do it, I volunteer to write the I-D document
once the interface requirements are worked out, which includes working
with
the final deposition of the DKIM-SSP design.

Comments?
