[ietf-dkim] RFC2821 Implementation Survey

[Dave Crocker]

Greetings.

The IETF will shortly be considering elevating the revised SMTP specification 
RFC 2821, to the second-level standards status of DRAFT.

A requirement for this is to produce information about implementations of the 
protocol specification.  It is therefore essential that we assemble a credible 
collection of information about actual development and interoperability 
testing -- and deployment is a form of testing -- for RFC 2821.

Because SMTP is a rich and widely-deployed protocol, the goal of this query is 
to ask for enough information to be useful, but not to place undue burden on 
responders by asking them to do a massive checklist.

It is assumed that most implementations of RFC 2821 have implemented all of 
its required (MUST) features and probably a fair number of its optional 
(SHOULD or MAY) features.

This survey does NOT cover any specifications outside of the RFC2821 document 
itself.  No enhancements, options, or the like.

Please take some time to complete the following questionnaire and send me a 
private note with your responses.  I will assemble them into a public report:

Please respond by 10 December 2007.
