You may be able to undo the insertion of a return-path, but I doubt very much that anyone implements NOTARY support using a "undo the DSN you just sent" mechanism to do it. There's also the relatied issue that AKAIK aliases operations don't reenter the MTA through a submission operation. And this gets to my issues with intertwining aliasing with delivery, and the suggestion that we can just drop the discussion of aliases versus mailing lists. If we do this then delivery becomes a meaningless abstraction with no substance. And while I agree with Dave that we must not let implementation details define our model, I get very nervous when there's nothing whatsoever in my implementation - or any of several other implementations I'm familiar with - that corresponds to a major delineation in the model. > > Certainly it would be desirable for a description of > > Delivered-To: (or Envelope-To:) in some other spec to reference > > such text if it appeared in 5321bis but, ... > It is my impression that we agree that if it goes anywhere it'll be a > separate draft. Yep. And while I don't really mind discussing it on this list, if it's getting confused with the revision or delaying it the delivered-to discussion needs to be moved elsewhere. Ned
