This text is a warning that there are dragons here, but it does not tell the reader anything about the real consequences. I believe that the text ought to be saying that portions of the incoming message that are covered by the signature SHOULD NOT be altered. The consequences of such alteration should probably be included in the security considerations. |

On the other hand, it might be nice to include the reference to [SMTP-MTA] in the first paragraph of Section 1. --- Maybe the Abstract should mention what type of messages (i.e. mail) the document handles? --- Section 2.2 does not need to include In examples, "C:" is used to indicate lines sent by the client, and "S:" indicates those sent by the server. Line breaks within a command example are for editorial purposes only. --- Section 3 In the last paragraph of the section there are some lower-case "must". Please be sure that you don't mean upper case. Similarly section 8 paragraph 3 |

There is no doubt in my mind that no one will object to these downrefs, but they need to be explicitly called out in the IETF LC. |

ACTION 1: IANA will replace the references to [RFC4409] with references to this … IANA has questions about the actions requested by this document. ACTION 1: IANA will replace the references to [RFC4409] with references to this document for the following port number registrations: submission 587 tcp Submission [RFC-to-be] submission 587 udp Submission [RFC-to-be] ACTION 2: The IANA Considerations section says, "The table in Table 1 has been corrected (reference for NO-SOLICITING) and extended (ATRN, DELIVERBY, CONPEM, and CONNEG). The registry should be updated to reflect the changed and new entries." However, the reference for NO-SOLICITING is correct in the registry, and ATRN and DELIVERBY have already been registered. It appears that the only action required is to register the following SMTP Service Extensions at http://www.iana.org/assignments/mail-parameters : Keywords Description Reference ------------------- ---------------------------------- ----------- CONPERM (?) [RFC4141] CONNEG (?) [RFC4141] QUESTIONS: - Is the name of the registration CONPERM, as in the table, or CONPEM, as in the IANA Considerations section? - How should we fill in the "Description" field for these registrations? - Should we add [RFC1846] as a reference for SIZE, as Table 1 appears to require? - Should we add [RFC3463] as a reference for ETRN, as Table 1 appears to require? Note: the IANA Considerations section should probably refer to the name of the registry ("SMTP Service Extensions"). It would also be helpful if the table included the RFC number for each registration. |

The following Last Call Announcement was sent out: From: The IESG To: IETF-Announce CC: Reply-To: … State changed to In Last Call from Last Call Requested. The following Last Call Announcement was sent out: From: The IESG To: IETF-Announce CC: Reply-To: ietf@ietf.org Subject: Last Call: (Message Submission for Mail) to Full Standard The IESG has received a request from the Yet Another Mail WG (yam) to consider the following document: - 'Message Submission for Mail' as a Full 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 2011-08-25. 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 This memo splits message submission from message relay, allowing each service to operate according to its own rules (for security, policy, etc.), and specifies what actions are to be taken by a submission server. Message relay is unaffected, and continues to use SMTP [SMTP-MTA] over port 25. When conforming to this document, message submission uses the protocol specified here, normally over port 587. This separation of function offers a number of benefits, including the ability to apply specific security or policy requirements. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-yam-rfc4409bis/ Implementation Report can be accessed at http://www.ietf.org/iesg/implementation.html IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-yam-rfc4409bis/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. |

The Document Shepherd for draft-ietf-yam-rfc4409bis-02 is S. Moonesamy. I have personally reviewed this version of the document and I believe that this version is reading for forwarding to the IESG for publication. 1.b. RFC 4409 was reviewed by participants of the YAM WG and a pre-evaluation I-D (draft-ietf-yam-4409bis-submit-pre-evaluation) was generated. This document incorporates the changes that was identified during the pre-evaluation of RFC 4409 and during reviews by participants of the YAM WG. I do not have any concerns about the depth or breadth of the reviews that have been performed. 1.c. I do not believe that the document needs more review from a particular or broader perspective as the specification is well-known to many participants in the YAM WG and there is already significant implementation and successful operational experience. 1.d. I do not have any specific concerns or issues with this document. I am not aware of any IPR claims. 1.e. The WG as a whole understands and agrees to the publication of the document. 1.f. There hasn't been any threat of appeal or any discontent about the document. 1.g. draft-ietf-yam-rfc4409bis-02 is submitted for publication as "Full Standard". 1.h. RFC 4956, RFC 5321 and RFC 5322 are downward references. The protocols that they describe are widely-deployed, interoperable, stable, and successful, so the references are justified based on RFC 4897. 1.i. There is an IANA considerations section and it is consistent with the body of the document. The entry in the SMTP Service Extensions registry for RFC 4409 should be updated to reference this document. The reference for Submit (RFC 2476) should be updated to point to this document. The registry should be updated to reflect the changed and new entries in Section 7. The entry in the Service Name and Transport Protocol Port Number Registry for port 587 should be updated to point to this document. 1.j. The document does not contain any ABNF rule. 1.k. Document Announcement draft Technical Summary This document splits message submission from message relay, allowing each service to operate according to its own rules (for security, policy, etc.) and specifies what actions are to be taken by a submission server. Working Group Summary The YAM WG adopted a two-step approach to move this document to Full Standard. The first step was a pre-evaluation of the existing specification to identify changes and non-changes. The second step was to incorporate the changes into the document and ensure that any implementation that conforms to the Draft Standard version of the specification remains compliant with this document. There was no controversy. There is consensus to move the specification to Full Standard. Document Quality The document has a high degree of technical maturity. In the five years since publication of the Draft Standard and 13 years since publication as Proposed Standard, the specification has become an integral part of all professional SMTP software products and is widely supported in Internet Mail operations. Chris Newman suggested adding Section 5.3 applying shorter timeouts. John Klensin wrote the text in Section 6.5 which discusses about adjusting character encodings. Personnel S. Moonesamy is the Document Shepherd for this document. Pete Resnick is the Responsible Area Director. |
