Well. I've nearly given up on DomainKeys :-( (Using its results) Using them for testing for valid emails is a big hit and miss problem. If I get a "pass" then I'm 100% its a pass , but if it fail or alike then it pay be a pass or a fail. From the Domains which have had DK information below tested on them maybe 50% actually give proper passes (even coming straight from yahoo.com servers) yahoogroups.com gmail.com yahoo.com earthlink.net Joke-Of-The-Day-Mail.com cc.yahoo-inc.com reply.ml00.net cunard.dm-4.com Does anyone know if yahoo have any comments about even yahoo.com DK testing failing on yahoo.com emails which came from yahoo, or should we just throw DK away at the moment until the designer of DK (Yahoo) gets it right? Anyone from Yahoo on this list want to comment? Someone comments a while back that yahoo news that yahoogroups where failing but valid yahoo.com is failing 50% of the time for me :-( Thanks Craig |

We know they cause problems. Keep in mind that this stuff is all experimental. We're learning where it works, what breaks down, etc. So far the big problem is mailing lists and forwarders that don't re-sign messages when re-mailing them. Probably most or all of the domains you listed are covered by that situation. What you're really testing is MTA/MUA integration, and helping us find cases where the spec breaks down. We expect verification failures in the short term as the glitches are ironed out and the software gets wider coverage. What is it you're trying to achieve? What is it you want DK to do for you today, versus some date in the future where it's universally supported and deployed? |
