The IESG has received a request from the Applications Area Working Group WG (appsawg) to consider the following document: - 'Email Authentication Status Codes' <draft-ietf-appsawg-email-auth-codes-04.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 2014-08-01. 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 There is at present no way to return a status code to an email client that indicates a message is being rejected or deferred specifically because of email authentication failures. This document registers codes for this purpose. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-appsawg-email-auth-codes/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-appsawg-email-auth-codes/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
