Shawn, Thanks for taking a look. A clarification or two below in the hope of saving time.... --On Thursday, August 04, 2016 19:48 +0000 Shawn Steele <Shawn.Steele@microsoft.com> wrote: > This draft just came to my attention, so I'm probably > missing a ton of interesting context, but I have a couple > questions/observations: > > > · This is a new mechanism, so I'd prefer it be > dependent on other new things.

I don't see this as a new mechanism, so much as tuning of the original MDN specifications through RFC 3798. The SMTPUTF8 (remember we switched the term around to distinguish the standards-track machinery from the earlier experimental specs) MDN machinery, described in RFC 6533, is very much dependent on and, IMO, evolutionary from, 3798. That said, I'm quite concerned about our going, instead of a path like the one you are suggesting which I see as 3798 -> 6533 -> maybe 6533bis -> unified MDN spec to 3798 -> 6533 -> eventual 6533bis \ -> 3798bis -> ... and would see an SMTPUTF8 prerequisite to unified MDNs, or at least a unified MDN model that didn't require handling separate from SMTPUTF8/6533[bis?], as highly desirable in that regard. See my longer note from earlier today for one view of the details. >... best, john
