Reported by: Scott Hollenbeck <shollenbeck@verisign.com>
Date Reported: 2023-07-31
Verified by: Orie Steele (IESG)

Sections 3.3 and 3.7.3 say:

Original Text
-------------
The <Mailbox> ABNF rule is imported from RFC 5321 and updated in 
order to support the internationalized email address.

The following ABNF rules imported from RFC 5321, Section 4.1.2, are 
updated directly or indirectly by this document:

This document updates <Mailbox> and <Domain> to support non-ASCII 
characters.

Corrected Text
--------------
The <Mailbox> ABNF rule is imported from RFC 5321 and extended in 
order to support the internationalized email address.

The following ABNF rules imported from RFC 5321, Section 4.1.2, are 
extended directly or indirectly by this document:

This document extends <Mailbox> and <Domain> to support non-ASCII 
characters.

Notes
-----
The original text can be incorrectly interpreted to suggest that the definitions found in RFC 6531 formally update the definitions found in RFC 5321. RFC 6531 does not formally update RFC 5321. As such, a word like "extends" may be less prone to misinterpretation than "updates".
