(Ends 2025-11-21)

This message starts a 2-week Call for Adoption for this document.

Abstract:
   This document deals with end-to-end cryptographically signed email.
   It introduces a novel structure for signed email that is designed to
   avoid creating any disturbance in legacy email clients.  This
   "unobtrusive" signature structure removes disincentives for signing
   email.
