Nothing that says to keep the signature expiration relatively short, and nothing which a mailing list recipient could not subsequently use to send spam. The first issue just needs a mention. It's the second issue that needs to be addressed IMO: As an originating site, I do not want to give permission to forward to just anyone. I want to indicate that I was sending to someone in particular, e.g., list@a.example, and *list@a.example* has permission to forward. (An originating site should be fine with their being a subsequent re-forwarding, say list@a.example sending to list@b.com which forwards, but I think they'd expect list@a.example to have given permission to list@b.com to re-forward, and the eventual recipient will be able to see that chain.) That's why I suggest that the originating site is going to want to talk to the mailing list site: "This message was sent from user@mydomain to list@a.example. You had better see my signature *and* received it from a.example." Your proposal doesn't do that. Maybe people who are now setting p=reject don't care. Maybe all they care about is a short-lived signature and permission to re-forward. But I don't think that's likely to be true. I think they care about the replay problem. Otherwise, it's inviting spammers to subscribe to (especially well-used) mailing lists so that they can get and endless supply of replayable signatures. I wouldn't bother with what you've proposed. pr -- Pete Resnick<http://www.qualcomm.com/~presnick/> Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. - +1 (858)651-4478
