[ietf-dkim] Resent-* handling (was: Draft minutes...)

[Eric Allman]

Scott,

Two observations:

First, the point of "MUST NOT be used in the normal processing of 
replies or other such automatic actions on messages" hinges on a 
couple of words, notably "normal" and "such".  I believe the intent 
here was to say that replies should not be directed to addresses in 
Resent header fields, "and other such automatic actions."  In 
particular, for Resent-* to work properly, an MUA must not reply to 
the Resent-* addresses, ever.  Replies are pretty normal.  On the 
other hand, I don't think that looking at who was the person who 
actually sent you this message to make a decision on whether you want 
to read it is the type of automatic action that the authors had in 
mind.

Second, I've proposed dropping all such requirements, which if 
approved will make this thread irrelevant.  I would rather have you 
take the time to reply to that thread than spend the energy arguing 
about whether the PRA algorithm is in some way related to DKIM.
