I've taken a look at the proposed draft and have a few notes as well. 4. The currently specified limits on i= are not included MUST >10, SHOULD > 50, etc 5.1 - In the current draft, it's mandated that AMS must use relaxed header canonicalization, but that's missing from the proposed draft 5.2 - I'm a bit confused by the comment noting the importance of i=2. What is it that you're intending there? 5.3.1 - typo: one of three possible values: -> one of *four* possible values 7.2 - It may be worth elaborating more on the possible ways in which cv=invalid can arise, if not here, maybe somewhere else 7.4 - In general I prefer this to the psuedo code in the current draft, but I think it could still use a bit of work. In particular, sections C-H are exactly describing how to validate a DKIM signature and seems somewhat unnecessary. Is there any particular reason you decided to include this, as opposed to just relying on the DKIM spec for this? 7.5 - typo: no -> all In general though, I agree with Brandon, the proposed draft definitely makes some things clearer, which I think is a step in the right direction. =Gene On Tue, May 9, 2017 at 2:04 PM, Brandon Long <blong@google.com> wrote: > In 5.1 defining the AMS, you say that it should cover DKIM-Signature and > AuthRes headers.
