TL;DR: Change downgrading to support what's most important to the end=20
user, and drop the rest. Lessen the amount of code provided to implement=20
downgrade to the minimum possible.


Rationale: While I find the downgrading document is well written, the=20
downgrade itself is IMO much too complex to be worthwhile. There's too=20
much to implement, too many cases to test, etc.

It defines new header fields that are intended to be parsable by new=20
code and even encourages parsing them. That's not good. We want people=20
to spend their time and energy implementing EAI natively, not writing=20
clientside parsers for Downgraded-Header-Field-X.


Details: Below I give section numbers and suggested action.

Section 4 (about new parsable header fields, Downgraded-This-That):

New text: "Server MAY generate Downgraded- fields. Clients MUST NOT rely=20
on such fields or try to parse such fields."

Section 5 (about downgrading various syntax elements):

5.1.1: If any Received field cannot be sent to non-EAI POP or IMAP=20
clients, then all Received fields are silently suppressed.

5.1.4: Any comments that require EAI are silently excised when the=20
header field is sent to an non-EAI client.

As an aside, I really, really hate this:
   Date: 14 aug 2011 12:00:00 +0200 (Mitteleurop=C3=A4ische Zeit)

5.1.5: Any MIME values that require EAI MAY be silently excised, or MAY=20
be converted to use RFC2231 syntax.

5.1.8: I like the algorithm, but I would prefer that the exact address=20
be explicitly undefined, so noone is tempted to detect EAI by looking at=20
a magic group name.

Btw. For reasons I cannot at the moment remember, I generate

    "=C3=A6@=C3=A6.no" <invalid@eai.invalid>

instead of an empty group. I'm sure I had a reason, though.

5.1.9: Seems to overlap with 4. I think 5.1.9 is a better location than=20
5 for this.

5.2.x: I would change most of these to be examples showing the effect of=20
the relevant 5.1.x rule.

6 (about MIME bodypart fields): Replace with "If any MIME values (e.g. a=20
file name in content-disposition) require EAI, these values are silently=20
excised before showing the header field to the client. If any other part=20
of a bodypart fields requires EAI, the entire field is silently excised."

7. Strike about half, particularly the bit about parsing downgrade-*.=20
Add a sentence such as "Sending EAI to non-EAI aware recipients offers=20
new opportunities for misunderstandings, spoofing and deception, if the=20
recipient is unable to read or understand a part of the message's =
meaning".

I apologise for suggesting such large changes so late.

Arnt

I have to agree.  The current document is basically a detailed design
to tunnel EAI messages through hostile MUAs that is so complex that it
seems unlikely to me that two implementations would ever match in
practice.  If that's what you want to do, you can always wrap the
messages as message/global attachments.

Arnt's suggested changes seem right, chop it down to the minimum
needed to produce a version of a message that won't break MUAs.

R's,
John

<role cochair>

For the moment, let me note that there are other options and
that circumstances may differ in different environments.  Just
to help with the discussion (this isn't a proposal yet, much
less one that I'm ready to advocate), note that this entire
downgrading model is something that happens between the delivery
MTA, the mail store, and the MUA.   We make strong assumptions
here and elsewhere about that being a relatively tight,
mutual-consent, relationship.   That is not traditionally IETF
territory.  More important, the nature of interoperability
issues are quite different from having multiple, independent,
systems at different edges of the Internet.

Noting that I will continue to leave consensus decisions up to
Joseph, I also note that two voices (or even a few more) don't
change the presumed WG consensus to move forward with the
current spec as is.  The fact that we've gone a few years
without any discussion along this line certainly entitles the
existing document to the presumption that it is the way the WG
wants to go.

I wonder if it would be possible to define a family of
self-consistent downgrade options, such that we could preserve
the current model for those environments that needed it and were
willing to go to the trouble of implementing (or finding
implementations) and deploying it, a second option along the
lines the Arnt and John L are outlining, and possibly a third or
fourth option.  

For example, it occurs to me that, for some environments, the
right response to a retrieval request from a legacy IMAP or POP
client for a message that requires SMTPUTF8 capability might be
to leave the message in the mail store and deliver a synthesized
cousin of an DSN to the client that identifies the message and
suggests finding an upgraded client.

Going that route would take some work, but perhaps not much more
work than constructing the stripped-down version of Downgrade.
Possibly most of the hard parts are done already.

Is that worth thinking about as a group?

You're right, although it might also mean that nobody's been paying 
attention recently.  It feels to me like a vestige of the downgrade on 
demand model that EAI rejected for mail transport.

Possibly.  In order of distance from the current text, I'd suggest:

1.  Since downgrades aren't reversible, there isn't really an interop 
reason to specify the details.  Say that for headers that contain UTF8 
text, do some combination of MIME encoding where possible (most headers), 
redacting parts of them (address headers), and throwing them away (trace 
headers).

2.  To deliver an EAI message to a non-EAI MUA, wrap it as a 
message/global, copy whatever headers you can into the wrapper message, 
and it's the MUA's problem.

3.  John's suggestion, synhesize a DSN that says you need a better MUA and 
deliver that to the user.

4.  For the rest of EAI, we made the decision that the EAI and legacy mail 
streams are parallel but separate, if you want to send an EAI message and 
there isn't an EAI path to the recipient, you lose.  Why should this be 
any different?  If the user doesn't have an EAI MUA, he can't pick up mail 
from an EAI POP or IMAP server.

My inclination leans toward #2, since MUAs that don't support EAI can 
often nonetheless display UTF-8 text.

The purpose of post-delivery message downgrading is
that POP/IMAP servers can send/remove internalionalized messages
to traditional POP/IMAP clients
and receivers can know they received internationalized messages.

No popimap-downgrading, POP/IMAP server could not send EAI messages to
traditional clients and POP server cound not remove the messages.

Current draft.
Tried not to break current MUAs. (Except allowing empty from:).

Do you think that end user understands what happend?

Any MUA can access EAI POP servers which offer EAI messages for the MUA.

Port number and protocols are the same.

Understood, but there's simpler ways to do that than to specify a detailed

Agreed, but we could strip out a great deal of the detail and just say 
here are the three techniques you can use to fix headers, use whichever 
ones you want.  Since the transformations aren't reversible and the user 
can't reply to a message with an EAI return address, the details don't 
really matter.

I don't know, but I don't see any reason to think that it's more or less 
baffling than a message full of Downgraded-this and redacted that headers. 
The IETF has never been very good at user interface design.

We could simplify section 3.1 of RFC5721bis and section 4 or RFC5738bis, 
so that if the client hasn't said UTF8, requests to retrieve EAI messages 
fail.  They currently offer a choice between fail and downgrade, just take 
out the downgrade choice.

Hi.

We have encountered a small problem at AUTH48 with some text in
5336bis (RFC-to-be 6531).  The text in Section 3.2 of
draft-ietf-eai-rfc5336bis-16 (just before the numbered list)
reads:

	"Instead, if a UTF8SMTPbis-aware SMTP client
	"(UTF8SMTPbis-aware SMTP sender) attempts to transfer an
	internationalized message and encounters an SMTP server
	that does not support the extension, it MUST make one of
	the following three choices and the priority order is 1, 2
	and 3." 

The last part of that sentence was added in response to a Last
Call comment.  If there is a moral here, it is that folks
should be really careful with changes in response to even
seemingly-editorial comments made during Last Call.  In any
event, "the priority order is 1, 2 and 3" is ambiguous as to
whether the WG thinks choice 1 or choice 3 should come first.

But it is a little worse than that because, in trying to fix
this, we discovered that the phrasing of those three choices
may not have been quite right.  In particular, the third case
seemed to contradict a very carefully-worded exception case in
RFC 5321.

To be clear what we are talking about before I outline what I
think are the options and ask for a decision, the current
AUTH48 working text reads (please don't worry about spacing):

   ...Instead, if an SMTPUTF8-aware SMTP client
   (sender) attempts to transfer an internationalized message
   and encounters an SMTP server that does not support the
   extension, it MUST make one of the following three choices.
   These are listed in decreasing order of preference.

   1.  It MAY either reject the message during the SMTP
       transaction or
       accept the message and then generate and transmit a
       notification of non-deliverability.  Such notification
       MUST be done as specified in RFC 5321 [RFC5321], RFC
       3464 [RFC3464], and RFC 6533 [RFC6533].

   2.  If and only if the SMTPUTF8-aware SMTP client (sender)
      is a
       Message Submission Agent (MSA) [RFC6409] [RFC5598], it
       MAY choose its own way to deal with this scenario
       according to the provisions of RFC 6409 [RFC6409] or its
       future versions.  However, the detailed specification of
       this process and its results are outside the scope of
       this document.

   3.  It MAY find an alternate route to the destination that
       permits
       SMTPUTF8.  That route MAY be discovered by trying
       alternate Mail eXchanger (MX) hosts (using preference
       rules as specified in RFC 5321) or using other means
       available to the SMTPUTF8-aware SMTP client.

There was an earlier stage in which the text was the same, but
"increasing" was substituted for "decreasing".

With an adjustment for what RFC 5321 actually allows, Pete
summarized these three cases as: 

	1. It MAY reject the message.
	2. If and only if it's a submission server, it MAY
	   something of its own choosing. 
	3. It MAY try another MX.

	If we take RFC 5321 Section 2.2.3 into account, 3 can be
	expanded to "It MAY try another MX if it decides to do so
	based on the particular circumstances."


It is absolutely clear to us (myself, Joseph, and Pete) that
the WG intended to encourage letting submission servers fix up
messages if they knew how (case 2 above) and rejecting/bouncing
messages back to those servers so that they could fix things
(case 1 above).  The third case is certainly reasonable as long
as it makes clear, somehow, that the circumstances are
important.  Indeed, although it is a useful clarification that
RFC 5321 Section 2.2.3 may apply to this particular extension,
it actually adds nothing to what RFC 5321 would permit if this
document said nothing at all.

So we probably need to fix the text (and to spend as little
time as possible making a decision).  I think the following are
a complete list of options although, if someone has a better
idea, he or she should raise it.  I hope that the WG can reach
consensus by mid-week (please make comments quickly so the WG
has a chance to discuss them if needed or, if you need more
time, say so).  If there is no consensus on choice of text,
Joseph, Jiankang, Pete, and I will make a decision.  If we have
to make a decision, we will consider both preferences for
particular approaches and remarks along the line of "do
whatever you like as long as you don't pick option 99".  Note
that I'm not asking whether the WG still believes in correction
by submission servers, etc.: those issues are closed unless
someone comes up with a _really_ strong argument, presumably
strong enough to put all of this back into WG and IETF LC.  We
are only trying to figure how to most clearly and accurately
reflect the WG's existing conclusions in the document.

Note that whatever is chosen may still be fine-tuned
editorially.

These options are deliberately in no particular order:

A.  Drop case 3 entirely to be consistent with the model of
putting nothing in these specs that is really part of the base
protocol (RFC 5321 in this case) and then clean up the text.
Note that this drops one piece of information that is not in
the base protocol, i.e., the WG's belief that SMTPUTF8 is an
extension to which Section 2.2.3 might reasonably be applied.

   ...Instead, if an SMTPUTF8-aware SMTP client
   (sender) attempts to transfer an internationalized message
   and encounters an SMTP server that does not support the
   extension, it SHOULD make one of the following two choices.
   These are listed in decreasing order of preference.

   1.  It MAY either reject the message during the SMTP
       transaction or
       accept the message and then generate and transmit a
       notification of non-deliverability.  Such notification
       MUST be done as specified in RFC 5321 [RFC5321], RFC
       3464 [RFC3464], and RFC 6533 [RFC6533].

   2.  If and only if the SMTPUTF8-aware SMTP client (sender)
       is a
       Message Submission Agent (MSA) [RFC6409] [RFC5598], it
       MAY choose its own way to deal with this scenario
       according to the provisions of RFC 6409 [RFC6409] or its
       future versions.  However, the detailed specification of
       this process and its results are outside the scope of
       this document.

Note the change from MUST to SHOULD because there is another
choice (the MX searching of RFC 5321 Section 2.2.3) out there.
It could just be left alone on the theory that whatever 5321
says overrides whatever is said here.   Or we could explain the
SHOULD, but that takes us back to three cases and...


B.  We leave all three cases as above and come up with revised
text as needed to clarify both the order and fact that case 3
isn't to be used unless the client has the information
(presumably out of band) that permits it to conform to the key
requirement in RFC 5321 Section 2.2.3.  That requirement
(second paragraph of 2.2.3) starts:

   In particular, if an extension implies that the delivery
   path normally supports special features of that extension,
   and an intermediate SMTP system finds a next hop that does
   not support the required extension, it MAY choose, based on
   the specific extension and circumstances, to requeue the
   message and try later and/or try an alternate MX host.

Note that 2.2.3 goes on to impose additional requirements on
timeouts in that case.

C.  We conclude that the "preference" order doesn't actually
mean much in this case.  From that point of view, option 2
applies only if the client is a submission server, option 3
applies only if the client has special additional information
or circumstances (information or circumstances that presumably
could override either of the other preference), and option 1
applies otherwise.  If we then turn the wording around a bit,
we would get something like (borrowing text from the above
where possibe)...

   ...Instead, if an SMTPUTF8-aware SMTP client
   (sender) attempts to transfer an internationalized message
   and encounters an SMTP server that does not support the
   extension, the best action for it to take depends on other
   conditions.  In particular:

    o If it is a Message Submission Agent (MSA) [RFC6409]
      [RFC5598], it MAY choose its own way to deal with this
	  scenario using the wide discretion for changing addresses
	  or otherwise fixing up and transforming messages allowed
	  by RFC 6409. As long as the resulting message conforms
	  to the requirements of RFC 5321 (i.e., without the
	  SMTPUTF8 extension), the details of that transformation
	  are outside the scope of this document.  

    o Otherwise, it SHOULD reject the message.  As usual, this
      can be done either by generating an appropriate reply
	  during the SMTP transaction or by accepting the message
	  and then generating and transmit a non-delivery
	  notification.  If the latter choice is made, the
	  notification process MUST conform to the requirements of
	  RFC 5321 [RFC5321], RFC 3464 [RFC3464], and RFC 6533
	  [RFC6533]. 

    o As specified in RFC 5321 Section 2.2.3, an SMTP client
	  with additional information and/or knowledge of special
	  circumstances MAY choose to requeue the message and try
	  later and/or try an alternate MX host as specified in
	  that section.


D.  Just about the same thing could be done, in somewhat more
terse form, by saying something like:

	"If the client is a submission agent [RFC6409], it SHOULD,
	if possible, fix the message to be consistent with SMTP
	requirements (in the absence of this extension) and resend
	the transformed message.   If it cannot or is not a
	submission agent, it SHOULD reject or bounce the message
	to give the user an opportunity to make her own
	corrections.  Alternately, if the client has sufficient
	additional information to know that special circumstances
	exist, it MAY examine hosts specified in DNS MX records
	with equal or lower preferences as specified in RFC 5321
	Section 2.2.3."

That approach assumes that the NDN requirements are covered in
other standards and need not be repeated here.  Of course, they
could be listed if the WG prefers.

Considering relations between 5321 and EAI documents, I like either choice
A or choice C. Among A and C, C looks better because it explicitly reminds
relations between 5321 and EAI documents.

Hi.<br>
<br>
We have encountered a small problem at AUTH48 with some text in<br>
5336bis (RFC-to-be 6531). =C2=A0The text in Section 3.2 of<br>
draft-ietf-eai-rfc5336bis-16 (just before the numbered list)<br>
reads:<br>
<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0&quot;Instead, if a UTF8SMTPbis-aware SMTP clie=
nt<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0&quot;(UTF8SMTPbis-aware SMTP sender) attempts =
to transfer an<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0internationalized message and encounters an SMT=
P server<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0that does not support the extension, it MUST ma=
ke one of<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0the following three choices and the priority or=
der is 1, 2<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0and 3.&quot;<br>
<br>
The last part of that sentence was added in response to a Last<br>
Call comment. =C2=A0If there is a moral here, it is that folks<br>
should be really careful with changes in response to even<br>
seemingly-editorial comments made during Last Call. =C2=A0In any<br>
event, &quot;the priority order is 1, 2 and 3&quot; is ambiguous as to<br>
whether the WG thinks choice 1 or choice 3 should come first.<br>
<br>
But it is a little worse than that because, in trying to fix<br>
this, we discovered that the phrasing of those three choices<br>
may not have been quite right. =C2=A0In particular, the third case<br>
seemed to contradict a very carefully-worded exception case in<br>
RFC 5321.<br>
<br>
To be clear what we are talking about before I outline what I<br>
think are the options and ask for a decision, the current<br>
AUTH48 working text reads (please don&#39;t worry about spacing):<br>
<br>
 =C2=A0 ...Instead, if an SMTPUTF8-aware SMTP client<br>
 =C2=A0 (sender) attempts to transfer an internationalized message<br>
 =C2=A0 and encounters an SMTP server that does not support the<br>
 =C2=A0 extension, it MUST make one of the following three choices.<br>
 =C2=A0 These are listed in decreasing order of preference.<br>
<br>
 =C2=A0 1. =C2=A0It MAY either reject the message during the SMTP<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 transaction or<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 accept the message and then generate and transmit a<b=
r>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 notification of non-deliverability. =C2=A0Such notifi=
cation<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 MUST be done as specified in RFC 5321 [RFC5321], RFC<=
br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 3464 [RFC3464], and RFC 6533 [RFC6533].<br>
<br>
 =C2=A0 2. =C2=A0If and only if the SMTPUTF8-aware SMTP client (sender)<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0is a<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 Message Submission Agent (MSA) [RFC6409] [RFC5598], i=
t<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 MAY choose its own way to deal with this scenario<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 according to the provisions of RFC 6409 [RFC6409] or =
its<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 future versions. =C2=A0However, the detailed specific=
ation of<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 this process and its results are outside the scope of=
<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 this document.<br>
<br>
 =C2=A0 3. =C2=A0It MAY find an alternate route to the destination that<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 permits<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 SMTPUTF8. =C2=A0That route MAY be discovered by tryin=
g<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 alternate Mail eXchanger (MX) hosts (using preference=
<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 rules as specified in RFC 5321) or using other means<=
br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 available to the SMTPUTF8-aware SMTP client.<br>
<br>
There was an earlier stage in which the text was the same, but<br>
&quot;increasing&quot; was substituted for &quot;decreasing&quot;.<br>
<br>
With an adjustment for what RFC 5321 actually allows, Pete<br>
summarized these three cases as:<br>
<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A01. It MAY reject the message.<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A02. If and only if it&#39;s a submission server,=
 it MAY<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 something of its own choosing.<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A03. It MAY try another MX.<br>
<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0If we take RFC 5321 Section 2.2.3 into account,=
 3 can be<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0expanded to &quot;It MAY try another MX if it d=
ecides to do so<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0based on the particular circumstances.&quot;<br=
>
<br>
<br>
It is absolutely clear to us (myself, Joseph, and Pete) that<br>
the WG intended to encourage letting submission servers fix up<br>
messages if they knew how (case 2 above) and rejecting/bouncing<br>
messages back to those servers so that they could fix things<br>
(case 1 above). =C2=A0The third case is certainly reasonable as long<br>
as it makes clear, somehow, that the circumstances are<br>
important. =C2=A0Indeed, although it is a useful clarification that<br>
RFC 5321 Section 2.2.3 may apply to this particular extension,<br>
it actually adds nothing to what RFC 5321 would permit if this<br>
document said nothing at all.<br>
<br>
So we probably need to fix the text (and to spend as little<br>
time as possible making a decision). =C2=A0I think the following are<br>
a complete list of options although, if someone has a better<br>
idea, he or she should raise it. =C2=A0I hope that the WG can reach<br>
consensus by mid-week (please make comments quickly so the WG<br>
has a chance to discuss them if needed or, if you need more<br>
time, say so). =C2=A0If there is no consensus on choice of text,<br>
Joseph, Jiankang, Pete, and I will make a decision. =C2=A0If we have<br>
to make a decision, we will consider both preferences for<br>
particular approaches and remarks along the line of &quot;do<br>
whatever you like as long as you don&#39;t pick option 99&quot;. =C2=A0Note=
<br>
that I&#39;m not asking whether the WG still believes in correction<br>
by submission servers, etc.: those issues are closed unless<br>
someone comes up with a _really_ strong argument, presumably<br>
strong enough to put all of this back into WG and IETF LC. =C2=A0We<br>
are only trying to figure how to most clearly and accurately<br>
reflect the WG&#39;s existing conclusions in the document.<br>
<br>
Note that whatever is chosen may still be fine-tuned<br>
editorially.<br>
<br>
These options are deliberately in no particular order:<br>
<br>
A. =C2=A0Drop case 3 entirely to be consistent with the model of<br>
putting nothing in these specs that is really part of the base<br>
protocol (RFC 5321 in this case) and then clean up the text.<br>
Note that this drops one piece of information that is not in<br>
the base protocol, i.e., the WG&#39;s belief that SMTPUTF8 is an<br>
extension to which Section 2.2.3 might reasonably be applied.<br>
<br>
 =C2=A0 ...Instead, if an SMTPUTF8-aware SMTP client<br>
 =C2=A0 (sender) attempts to transfer an internationalized message<br>
 =C2=A0 and encounters an SMTP server that does not support the<br>
 =C2=A0 extension, it SHOULD make one of the following two choices.<br>
 =C2=A0 These are listed in decreasing order of preference.<br>
<br>
 =C2=A0 1. =C2=A0It MAY either reject the message during the SMTP<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 transaction or<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 accept the message and then generate and transmit a<b=
r>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 notification of non-deliverability. =C2=A0Such notifi=

br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 3464 [RFC3464], and RFC 6533 [RFC6533].<br>
<br>
 =C2=A0 2. =C2=A0If and only if the SMTPUTF8-aware SMTP client (sender)<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 is a<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 Message Submission Agent (MSA) [RFC6409] [RFC5598], i=
t<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 MAY choose its own way to deal with this scenario<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 according to the provisions of RFC 6409 [RFC6409] or =

ation of<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 this process and its results are outside the scope of=
<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 this document.<br>
<br>
Note the change from MUST to SHOULD because there is another<br>
choice (the MX searching of RFC 5321 Section 2.2.3) out there.<br>
It could just be left alone on the theory that whatever 5321<br>
says overrides whatever is said here. =C2=A0 Or we could explain the<br>
SHOULD, but that takes us back to three cases and...<br>
<br>
<br>
B. =C2=A0We leave all three cases as above and come up with revised<br>
text as needed to clarify both the order and fact that case 3<br>
isn&#39;t to be used unless the client has the information<br>
(presumably out of band) that permits it to conform to the key<br>
requirement in RFC 5321 Section 2.2.3. =C2=A0That requirement<br>
(second paragraph of 2.2.3) starts:<br>
<br>
 =C2=A0 In particular, if an extension implies that the delivery<br>
 =C2=A0 path normally supports special features of that extension,<br>
 =C2=A0 and an intermediate SMTP system finds a next hop that does<br>
 =C2=A0 not support the required extension, it MAY choose, based on<br>
 =C2=A0 the specific extension and circumstances, to requeue the<br>
 =C2=A0 message and try later and/or try an alternate MX host.<br>
<br>
Note that 2.2.3 goes on to impose additional requirements on<br>
timeouts in that case.<br>
<br>
C. =C2=A0We conclude that the &quot;preference&quot; order doesn&#39;t actu=
ally<br>
mean much in this case. =C2=A0From that point of view, option 2<br>
applies only if the client is a submission server, option 3<br>
applies only if the client has special additional information<br>
or circumstances (information or circumstances that presumably<br>
could override either of the other preference), and option 1<br>
applies otherwise. =C2=A0If we then turn the wording around a bit,<br>
we would get something like (borrowing text from the above<br>
where possibe)...<br>
<br>
 =C2=A0 ...Instead, if an SMTPUTF8-aware SMTP client<br>
 =C2=A0 (sender) attempts to transfer an internationalized message<br>
 =C2=A0 and encounters an SMTP server that does not support the<br>
 =C2=A0 extension, the best action for it to take depends on other<br>
 =C2=A0 conditions. =C2=A0In particular:<br>
<br>
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0o If it is a Message Submission Agent (MSA) [RFC6409]<br>

Exactly. _A_ downgrade is justified, not a high-fidelity one.

I also have a mild preference for option C.  Here's the possibilities,
do what works for you.  I do think we should mention trying another

I agree that the priority isn't particularly helpful, and could be damaging=
.  Which of the 3 choices is taken depends on which one applies to the curr=
ent situation, regardless of priority.

I kind of like C, although I'd remove the "otherwise" from the 2nd bullet, =
which is implicitly asserting a priority.  I do like the "reminder" in the =
3rd bullet of C that other routes are available.  Although that's fairly cl=
ear in RFC5231 section 2.2.3, it may not be obvious in this context.

I'd also be fine with A, or your corrected original example.  I'm more wary=
 of B & D because they are significantly revised and this isn't worth ratho=
ling on.  Though awkward, I don't even think the original text would block =
implementers.

<hat=co-chair>

Folks,

I'd like to suggest that people dial down the rhetoric and try
extra-hard to listen to and understand each other because there
may be a lot of different, valid, perspectives on the subject.

A few of us have pointed out that the IETF doesn't do well with
UI designs, but, while there may be some assumptions, UI designs
are not really the issue here.  What is an issue is the
relationship among the delivery MTA, the message store, the IMAP
or POP server, the user and her MUA (and IMAP or POP client),
and maybe some other pieces.  Operational deployment policies
may be important too: if I'm an operator or IT department in an
organization that is basically ASCII-oriented and I'm not going
to advertise SMTPUTF8 capability from the delivery MTA until I
have EAI-competent IMAP and POP clients available and have told
people to convert to them, my attitude toward downgrades may be
very different from, e.g., being in a mostly non-ASCII
environment in which people are very anxious to enable SMTPUTF8
and non-ASCII addresses on the delivery servers but where I
expect the deployment rate for upgraded clients to have a very
long tail.  

For obvious reasons, the IETF has traditionally stayed away from
trying to put requirements on those operational relationships
among consenting (and usually connected) parties.    None of us
really know each other's operational environments or
assumptions; we know even less about environments and
assumptions that are not represented in the WG.

So, while I think it is useful for us to explore and, if
appropriate, document, a range of options for different
scenarios, I think we should skip trying to tell others what
they do or do not need.  

I noted that, for one scenario, I'd like to explore mechanisms
for giving the IMAP or POP user a clear "there are messages
waiting for you that you aren't going to see until you switch
clients or find a different access method" message.  I don't
think that is the only answer, or even a "best" answer, just
that it matches at least one plausible scenario.

So, while I'm open to other ideas, I'd like to see those who
think that scenarios other than the one anticipated by the
current pop-imap-downgrade are important to prepare I-Ds
describing the scenarios they anticipate and what the
corresponding protocol would look like, both in enough detail
that the WG can look at the drafts and figure out whether there
is consensus on publication.  As part of this, I think we should
try to modify the current pop-imap-downgrade draft to include a
description of the scenario(s) that would justify its "preserve
all possible information even if it cannot be used in automated
replies" approach.

Please remember that our target is still to have the set of
POP-IMAP documents in the hands of the IESG well before the
Paris IETF so, if you are going to write, write quickly.  That
said, I don't know that there would be a big problem handling
additional scenarios/protocol specifications as individual
submissions if that were necessary.

It would be nice to end up with no more than three
scenario-solution combinations: no downgrade (refuse to
deliver), full information preservation, and somewhere in
between.  But I see no need to require that at this point, nor
any possibility of doing so.  Let's see some drafts.

If anyone has better ideas that would help us move forward
efficiently, please say so.

    john

You're right, it really depends on your model of how users will make the 
transition from legacy to EAI mail.  Here's some possibilities I can think 
of when an MTA starts handling EAI mail:

1.  Users don't have to upgrade, but get EAI mail anyway: the server 
creates some version of EAI messages for legacy clients, downgraded or 
wrapped.  If they're serious about supporting legacy clients, they'd need 
some way for legacy users to respond to EAI mail, e.g., the server creates 
local forwarding addresses for EAI addresses in downgraded or wrapped 
messages, and substitutes them into the headers.  (I am most definitely 
not suggesting we spec out the way that would work.)

2. Users are expected to upgrade: server can synthesize DSNs that say 
"upgrade your MUA like we told you to if you want to see your mail."

3. Users who want EAI mail upgrade, users who don't care, don't: the 
server remembers which users are EAI enabled, based on whether they've 
sent EAI mail or set the UTF8 flag in a POP or IMAP session.  Server 
rejects incoming EAI mail to non-EAI users.  For legacy POP and IMAP 
sessions from EAI users, it synthesizes DSNs that say "use your EAI mail 
program."

I can see any of these being reasonable, depending on the user community 
and its relationship to the mail service.  But I have to say, the current 
downgrade where you can mostly see messages but not respond to them seems 
cruel.  If you want to provide backward compatibility for your legacy 
users, it should let them use mail like they're accustomed to using it.

R's,
John

Quick question: Is downgrade an integral part of the POP-IMAP documents 
set, or could it be treated as a separate thing, so that the main POP 
and IMAP documents could move ahead even if we have to take some more 
time with downgrade?

Same here, with the same tweak.

But I'm only an observer in this game, so please ignore me if it helps 
moving forward.

I'm not sure.

As far as I could tell, none of the IMAP, POP, SMTP or Submission
extensions involve a promise on part of the server to support IMAP/POP
downgrading. But I find that a little surprising, so maybe there is a
promise I've overlooked?

It is maybe worth noting that one of the old jokes about X.400
was the the only way to reply to most X.400 messages involved
picking up the phone (either to respond directly or to find a
route).  We know how much X.400 traffic there is today, probably
in part as a consequence.  On the other hand, people can
eliminate those problems by upgrading (either an MUA or a
provider) which, for X.400 users who didn't like the "reply by
phone" option, there was mostly the possibility of "upgrading"
to Internet mail.  Many did.

So I would suggest that cruelty lies somewhat in the eye of the
beholder.  And, while circumstances differ, if it encourages
upgrading, maybe one should be in favor of a little cruelty :-(

Your quick question doesn't have a quick answer.  It would
almost certainly be possible to restructure the POP and IMAP
documents to make a downgrade model (very broadly construed and
probably including the explicit "there is a message here that
you can't read" possibility that John Levine and I have been
poking at) a future task.  Whether the IETF Last Call and the
IESG would let us get away with that is a different question --
the IETF has often, but not always, been uncomfortable with
situations that require transitions but where the documents come
with no plan or discussion of a strategy.

In addition and even more important, the WG has so far assumed
that some sort of plan is needed to deal with the case of a
delivery MTA that accepts SMTPUTF8 messages but that something
between there and the user can't handle them.   I think it might
be hard to get consensus in the WG to walk away from that
position although, if there were enough interest, we could ask
the question (while remembering that the IETF community might
push back and at least require a thorough analysis if not a
protocol).

Speaking personally, I'd also hope the WG would ask the question
as to whether "POP and IMAP now; downgrade after we take some
more time" would actually buy anything.  Remembering that our
target isn't to get documents published but to get systems and
capabilities deployed, unless there was evidence that there were
important actors who would deploy without these
post-delivery-MTA issues being resolved by the WG, splitting
downgrade handling into a separate, later, task might actually
result in a longer time before deployment occurred (because we'd
have to spend time revising and reviewing the POP and IMAP
documents to deal with the change rather than focusing that
energy on getting the downgrading model resolved.

The problem is that the server can't know and the promise should
not be necessary in the long term (everything past the delivery
server EAI-capable).  Trying to draw a picture that covers all
of the cases, including closely-connected message stores and
ones to whom messages are passed (via LMTP, shared NFS-like
storage, or otherwise), POP/IMAP clients with varying
capabilities, and so on. is really illuminating about how many
cases there are, what information has to be available in what
places, etc.  A delivery server _could_ promise to always
downgrade a message before depositing it in or transferring it
to the the mail store but that is exactly the behavior we want
to discourage in order to favor EAI-capable mail stores.

I really like the wording in the third bullet of option C, so that's my 
mild preference as a result. All four options are acceptable to me, but I 
think the proposed text in option C will result in minimal time expenditure 
on this issue.

Hi.

Ok, everyone who has spoken up has either identified option C as
their first preference or as one of a set of more-or-less equal
preferences.  Some were concerned about "Otherwise".  I had used
it to avoid having to use several more words and am not sure I
really see the preference implication, but have changed it.

The following text is going to the RFC Editor and, subject to
editorial revisions by them or changes made by the ADs, will
appear in the document.  Based on a note from the RFC Editor
yesterday, this is the last outstanding issue for 5336bis/
proto-RFC 6531.

   ------------

   ...Instead, if an SMTPUTF8-aware SMTP client
   (sender) attempts to transfer an internationalized message
   and encounters an SMTP server that does not support the
   extension, the best action for it to take depends on other
   conditions.  In particular:

    o If it is a Message Submission Agent (MSA) [RFC6409]
      [RFC5598], it MAY choose its own way to deal with this
	  scenario using the wide discretion for changing addresses
	  or otherwise fixing up and transforming messages allowed
	  by RFC 6409. As long as the resulting message conforms
	  to the requirements of RFC 5321 (i.e., without the
	  SMTPUTF8 extension), the details of that transformation
	  are outside the scope of this document.  

    o If is not an MSA or is an MSA and does not choose to
	  transform the message the message to one that does not
	  require the SMTPUTF8 extension, it SHOULD reject the
	  message.  As usual, this can be done either by
	  generating an appropriate reply during the SMTP
	  transaction or by accepting the message and then
	  generating and transmit a non-delivery notification.  If
	  the latter choice is made, the notification process MUST
	  conform to the requirements of RFC 5321 [RFC5321], RFC
	  3464 [RFC3464], and RFC 6533 [RFC6533]. 

    o As specified in RFC 5321 Section 2.2.3, an SMTP client
	  with additional information and/or knowledge of special
	  circumstances MAY choose to requeue the message and try
	  later and/or try an alternate MX host as specified in
	  that section.

   ------------

A quick check on the RFC Editor's status pages indicates that
our current status is:

RFC-to-be   (was)        status
 6530       4952bis     Complete
 6531       5336bis     See above.  Still needs formal AD
                        signoff, but I think that is routine at
                        this point.
 6532       5335bis     Complete
 6533       5337bis     RFC Editor processing comments from
                        Chris Newman, awaiting signoff from
                        Tony Hansen 

A separate note on next steps will follow soon.

WG participants,

My last note covered the status of the documents we have
approved but that are not yet published.    This one is an
attempt to summarize where we are --and, more important, what
people should be doing-- going forward (starting now).

With the core documents out of the WG's hands, people should
turn their attention to the POP, IMAP, and downgrade sets,
including examining the current documents.  The WG and authors
of the IMAP and POP documents should think about how to modify
those documents to accommodate multiple downgrade models, some
of which might still be unspecified when the POP and IMAP
documents are published.

We are also looking for an I-D on the stripped-down downgrade
option suggested by Arnt, John Leslie, and others and for
author(s) for an I-D on the pseudo-DSN for "you don't get this
message until you upgrade" option.   As I indicated in an
earlier note, I think those two, plus an updated version of
pop-imap-downgrade, would form the core of the new strategy.
That strategy is a hypothesis, not a conclusion: those with
other ideas should speak up.

Anyone who believes the WG needs a formal consensus call on
moving in the direction of multiple downgrade options should say
so (private notes to Joseph and/or myself would be sufficient;
if it is desired, I'd prefer to just do a consensus call rather
than spend time debating whether or not it is necessary).

I hate having TODOs and couldn't concentrate on programming anyway.

My new desktop isn't properly set up for RFCs yet; appended is a protodraft.

Internet-draft                                                 June 2011


Abstract

   This document specifies a method for IMAP and POP servers to serve
   EAI messages to non-EAI clients. The specification is simple, easy to
   implement and provides only rudimentary results.


1. Conventions Used in This Document

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
   document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].

   Formal syntax is defined by [RFC5234].

   Example lines prefaced by "C:" are sent by the client and ones
   prefaced by "S:" by the server. The five characters [...] means that
   something has been elided.


2. Overview

   It may happen that an EAI-ignorant IMAP or POP client opens a mailbox
   containing EAI messages, or even read EAI messages, for instance when
   a user has both EAI-capable and EAI-ignorant MUAs.

   This document specifies a way to present such messages to the client.
   It values simplicity of implementation over accuracy of
   representation, on the theory that anyone who wants accuracy should
   use EAI, and implementers' time should be used for implementing EAI
   proper.

   The server is assumed to be EAI-capable internally. When it needs to
   present an EAI message (the "real message") to a non-EAI client, it
   synthesizes a non-EAI message containing most of the information and
   presents that (the "synthetic message").


3. Information preserved and lost

   The synthetic message is intended to convey the most important
   information to the user. Where information is lost, the user should
   see the message as incomplete rather than modified.

   The synthetic message is not intended to convey any EAI information
   to the MUA. Nothing parsable is added.

Internet-draft                                                 June 2011


3.1 Email addresses

   Each regular EAI-specific email address in the 14 header fields
   listed below is replaced with an invalid email address whose display-
   name tells the user what happened.

   The format of the display-name is explicitly unspecified.

   Given an EAI address "Fred <fred@EXAMPLE.com", the rendering might be
   "fred@EXAMPLE.com <invalid@eai.invalid>" or "Fred
   <invalid@eai.invalid>".

   Irregular email addresses (that is, those to which the user cannot
   reply, such as "unknown:;") are silently excised.

   The affected header fields are Bcc, Cc, From, ReplyTo, ResentBcc,
   ResentCc, ResentFrom, ResentSender, ResentTo, ReturnPath, Sender and
   To.  Any addresses present in other header fields are not regarded as
   addresses by this specification.


3.2 Mime values and comments

   Any mime field (whether in the message header or a bodypart header)
   which cannot be presented as-is to the client is silently excised
   along with its name.

   Given a field such as "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=foo;
   signed-off-by=fred@EXAMPLE.com", the field is presented as "Content-
   Disposition: attachment; filename=foo".


3.3 Remaining header fields

   Any header field which cannot be presented to the client even after
   the modifications in sections 3.1 and 3.2 is silently excised.


4. IMAP-specific details

   IMAP offers a way to retrieve the message size without downloading
   it, RFC822.SIZE. RFC 3501 requires that this size be exactly correct.

   This specification relaxes that requirement: An IMAP server is
   permitted to send the size of the real message as RFC822.SIZE, even
   though the synthetic message's size differs.

Internet-draft                                                 June 2011


4. POP-specific details

   None appear to be needed.


6. Security Considerations

   If the real message contains signed body parts, the synthetic message
   may contain an invalid signature.

   If any excised information is significant, then that information does
   not arrive at the recipient. Notably, the message-id, in-reference-to
   and/or references fields may be excised, which might cause to a lack
   of context when the recipient reads the message.

Starting with old document may work well. MIME encapsulation is easy.

  http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-eai-downgrade-01

Or, another downgraded message may contain multi parts

  part1 (main part): message/delivery-status ? text/plain; charset=ascii ?
                     Error message
                     a message to update receiver's MUA

  part2:             text/plain; charset=utf-8
  
                     header fields of the non-ascii message
		     some of lines of the body  of the non-ascii message

  part3:             message/global?

                     The original non-ascii message which may contain multipart
                     # However RFC 2045 disallow nested encoding.

Before you use 'invalid' TLD, you should reserve 'invalid' TLD
even if you use it as an example.

MIME header fields are easily converted by RFC 2231.

Do you mean deleting 'Subject:' header fields which contains non-ASCII
character?

Perhaps. I found it quick and easy to write what I wanted to say (using
the source of a quite different draft for the boilerplate).

RFC 2606 reserves it.

Many things are easily done; the sum isn't easy any more. This draft is
about specifying a minimal proposal. In that context, even easy
conversions must be individually justified.

Hm. That omission comes from my code, where subject is orthogonal to
EAI. I had to take care of unlabelled 8-bit subject fields already
(there are many in the wild), therefore I didn't need to add that for EAI.

I guess it should go in.

Thank you for your comments.

Looks pretty reasonable to me.  Perhaps add a sentence allowing but
not requiring servers to beautify headers if they want, e.g., turn
UTF-8 into MIME, but stress that it is OPTIONAL and the primary goal
here is to let the user know he or she has mail that the MUA can't
handle.

John

Full use of electronic mail throughout the world requires that
(subject to other constraints) people be able to use close variations
on their own names (written correctly in their own languages and
scripts) as mailbox names in email addresses.  This document
introduces a series of specifications that define mechanisms and
protocol extensions needed to fully support internationalized email
addresses.  These changes include an SMTP extension and extension of
email header syntax to accommodate UTF-8 data.  The document set also
includes discussion of key assumptions and issues in deploying fully
internationalized email.  This document is a replacement for RFC
4952; it reflects additional issues identified since that document
was published.  [STANDARDS-TRACK]

This document is a product of the Email Address Internationalization Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track
protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Internet
Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and
status of this protocol.  Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

Internet mail was originally limited to 7-bit ASCII.  MIME added
support for the use of 8-bit character sets in body parts, and also
defined an encoded-word construct so other character sets could be
used in certain header field values.  However, full
internationalization of electronic mail requires additional
enhancements to allow the use of Unicode, including characters
outside the ASCII repertoire, in mail addresses as well as direct use
of Unicode in header fields like "From:", "To:", and "Subject:",
without requiring the use of complex encoded-word constructs.  This
document specifies an enhancement to the Internet Message Format and
to MIME that allows use of Unicode in mail addresses and most header
field content.

This specification updates Section 6.4 of RFC 2045 to eliminate the
restriction prohibiting the use of non-identity content-transfer-
encodings on subtypes of "message/".  [STANDARDS-TRACK]

Delivery status notifications (DSNs) are critical to the correct
operation of an email system.  However, the existing Draft Standards
(RFC 3461, RFC 3464, RFC 6522) are presently limited to ASCII text in
the machine-readable portions of the protocol.  This specification
adds a new address type for international email addresses so an
original recipient address with non-ASCII characters can be correctly
preserved even after downgrading.  This also provides updated content
return media types for delivery status notifications and message
disposition notifications to support use of the new address type.

This document extends RFC 3461, RFC 3464, RFC 3798, and RFC 6522.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts director=
ies. This draft is a work item of the Email Address Internationalization Wo=
rking Group of the IETF.

	Title           : Post-delivery Message Downgrading for Internationalized =
Email Messages
	Author(s)       : Kazunori Fujiwara
	Filename        : draft-ietf-eai-popimap-downgrade-04.txt
	Pages           : 20
	Date            : 2012-02-27

   The Email Address Internationalization (SMTPUTF8) extension allows
   UTF-8 characters in mail header fields.  Upgraded POP and IMAP
   servers support internationalized email messages.  If a POP/IMAP
   client does not support Email Address Internationalization, POP/IMAP
   servers cannot send Internationalized Email Headers to the client and
   cannot remove the message.  To avoid the situation, this document
   describes a conversion mechanism for internationalized Email messages
   to be traditional message format.  The purpose of post-delivery
   message downgrading is to enable POP/IMAP servers to deliver
   internationalized messages to traditional POP/IMAP clients.  In the
   process, message elements requiring internationalized treatment can
   be removed or recoded and receivers can know they received messages
   containing such elements even if they cannot receive the elements
   themselves.
