The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Domain-based Email Authentication Using Public Keys Advertised in the DNS (DomainKeys) ' <draft-delany-domainkeys-base-06.txt> as a Historic This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Russ Housley. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-delany-domainkeys-base-06.txt Technical Summary The DomainKeys protocol is a domain-based, user-transparent, email authentication system. It was developed outside of the IETF process. One of the primary goals of DomainKeys was to gain some real-world experience that could add value to the DKIM WG effort. The DomainKeys specification and the consequential deployment experience provided significant input for the DKIM base document, and DKIM is essentially an evolved version of DomainKeys. Working Group Summary This document is an individual submission, and it has not been reviewed by the DKIM WG. Protocol Quality There are numerous implementations and significant deployment. This document was reviewed by Russ Housley for the IESG. Note to RFC Editor Please add a line to the left hand side of the title page header: Obsoleted by: XXXX And replace "XXXX" with the RFC number assigned to draft-ietf-dkim-base once it is approved. Also, please publish this document as an RFC at the same time as draft-ietf-dkim-base is published as an RFC. The two RFCs should have adjacent RFC numbers. My preference is for this document to have the lower of the two RFC numbers; it was done first. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
