Yahoo and Cisco to submit e-mail ID spec to IETF
Of course, this development comes on the heels of two other methods for e-mail authentication have been approved by the IESG for publication as "experimental" RFC's: "Sender Policy Framework (SPF) for Authorizing Use of Domains in E-Mail" and "Sender ID: Authenticating E-Mail".
Juan Carlos Perez writes in NetworkWorld:
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.
