Network World's Cisco News Alert

Yahoo and Cisco to submit e-mail ID spec to IETF
By Juan Carlos Perez, IDG News Service, 07/11/05

Yahoo and Cisco Monday plan to announce they will submit their
e-mail authentication specification, DomainKeys Identified Mail
(DKIM), to the IETF to be considered as an industry standard.

Discussions on DKIM will begin at the IETF meeting in Paris
scheduled to run between July 31 and August 5, Yahoo and Cisco
officials said.

DKIM combines Yahoo's DomainKeys and Cisco's Internet Identified
Mail, two e-mail authentication technologies developed
separately, which the companies announced in June they would
combine with the intention of licensing the resulting
specification royalty-free throughout the industry.

DKIM is designed to give e-mail providers a mechanism to verify
the origin of e-mail messages and thus combat spoofing. Spammers
use spoofing to change an e-mail message's header information to
deceive recipients into believing the message was sent by a
known and trusted personal acquaintance or a legitimate
business, such as a bank or an online store.
