The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Extensions to DKIM for Failure Reporting' (draft-ietf-marf-dkim-reporting-16.txt) as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Messaging Abuse Reporting Format Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Pete Resnick and Peter Saint-Andre. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-marf-dkim-reporting/ Technical Summary Deployers of message authentication technologies are increasingly seeking visibility into DKIM verification failures and conformance failures involving the published signing practices (e.g., ADSP) of an Administrative Management Domain. This document extends DKIM and ADSP to add an optional reporting address and some reporting parameters. Reports are generated using the format defined in draft-ietf-marf-authfailure-report. Working Group Summary There is nothing of real note in the working group discussion. The document was not controversial, and in the normal process of hammering out the details, everything went smoothly. The document has very broad consensus in the MARF working group. Document Quality There is at least one open-source implementation now, from the document editor. There is also an effort called DMARC, which builds on DKIM, and some people involved with that work plan to implement this protocol. Personnel Barry Leiba <barry.leiba@computer.org> is the document shepherd Pete Resnick <presnick@qualcomm.com> is the responsible AD.
