The attached revisions stem from our session in Redmond in April of this year.
Thanks to Mark for applying the edits.
Would you please review these and compare them to your notes/recollections.
We have a number of other points to consider:
- The most user-friendly aliasing methods (between the EAI address and the ASCII address that point to the same user mailbox) may be script-specific. UASG should make a proposal for a few scripts and let communities handle the rest.
- Email service providers should offer support for SPF/DKIM. Old-school Spam filters will be challenged with new scripts. Reputation systems like DKIM are a good mitigation. Franck was going to write up something for this. Mark will follow up with his anti-spam folks (Terry Zink) to make sure that U-Labels are compatible with DKIM.
- We need to think about digital signatures. A user with aliases will have multiple signatures. Are there any usability issues related to that?
- Should we include anti-abuse safety issues in our recommendations? We are also looking at this topic with respect to the Quick Guide to Linkification. We are waiting till after the forthcoming M3WAAG meeting in Lisbon before making a decision on this topic, but your thoughts would be welcome.
I would welcome feedback by the 10th, please.
