Internet operation has typically required no public mechanism for
announcing restriction or permission of particular hosts to operate clients
or servers for particular services on behalf of particular domains. What is
missing is an open, interoperable means by which a trusted agency can
announce authorization for a host to operate a service. The current
specification supports this capability for sending SMTP clients.
Specifically, is a sending SMTP client permitted to act as a client MTA?
Has a separate authority given it permission to perform this service?
Client SMTP Authorization (CSA) specifies a DNS-based record that states
whether an associated host has permission to operate as a client MTA.
