The IESG has received a request from an individual submitter to consider the following document: - 'Update to Internet Message Format to Allow Group Syntax in the "From:" and "Sender:" Header Fields' <draft-leiba-5322upd-from-group-06.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2012-11-06. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract The Internet Message Format (RFC 5322) allows "group" syntax in some email header fields, such as "To:" and "CC:", but not in "From:" nor "Sender:". This document updates RFC 5322 to relax that restriction, allowing group syntax in those latter fields, as well as in "Resent- From:" and "Resent-Sender:", in certain situations. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-leiba-5322upd-from-group/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-leiba-5322upd-from-group/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
