Title: Bounce Address Tag Validation (BATV)
State: Active
Authors: John Levine
Group: Individual Submissions (none)
Date: 2004-09-07
The envelope of Internet mail contains an RFC 2821.MailFrom command, which
may supply an address to be used as the recipient of transmission and
delivery notices about the original message. Existing Internet mail permits
unauthorized use of addresses in the MailFrom command, causing notices to
be sent to unwitting and unwilling recipients. Bounce Address Tag
Validation (BATV) defines an extensible mechanism for validating the
MailFrom address. It also defines an initial use of that mechanism which
requires no administrative overhead and no global implementation.
