DomainKeys Identified Mail

Just checking - this article (via Slashdot) is what FQ made available to us last year, right?

What FutureQuest made available last year (http://www.aota.net/forums/showthread.php?t=22489) is DomainKeys (http://domainkeys.sourceforge.net/), which is different than DomainKeys Identified Mail (http://www.dkim.org/). They are related, in that DKIM has many of the features of straight DomainKeys, but DKIM has added features. The header syntax is different and the cryptography involves different mechanisms.

We agree that this would be a good addition to our mail system, and have added it to our development wish list.

... according to a report released in late January by the Authentication and Online Trust Alliance (AOTA). Hey! That's our acronym they stole. :ytold:

Besides, "Authentication and Online Trust Alliance" sounds pretty lame by comparison.
