Technical Summary 

   Email messages often contain information which might be considered
   private or sensitive, per either regulation or social norms. When
   such a message becomes the subject of a report intended to be shared
   with other entities, the report generator may wish to redact or elide
   the sensitive portions of the message. This memo suggests one method
   for doing so effectively.

Working Group Summary 

   There was little controversy. This is obviously something needed and
   is in current use within production feedback loops.

Document Quality 

   There are some existing implementations of feedback loops that follow
   this process, and others that vary a little because they are earlier
   implementations which informed this specification. There is certainly
   consensus within industry that this is an appopropriate specification
   upon which to converge.
