I would caution against drawing any conclusions from the lack of success of
IMAP CONVERT, or Sieve CONVERT for that matter.  Server-side conversions have a
long history of not being nearly as interesting or useful to users as
developers believe them to be. This goes all the way back to products like
MAILbus Conversion Manager back in the mid 1980s and many other examples since
then.

And in the rare cases where such facilities get any traction, it's usually for
applications they weren't really intended for.

That's of course annoying, but there are usually way more messages with 
[ s p a m ] in the subject line that are actually spam. Speaking only 
from my personal experience, such a header actually improves my 
processing speed even if there are occasional false positives. Of course 
your millage may vary.

I don't mind adding a track field, if that's what others want. But for 
whom is that? There are three possibilities:

- The MUA: This doesn't apply, because I don't think there will be many
   MUAs that deal with downgrading. If anybody wants to spend work on an
   MUA, just work on the upgrade.

- A human debugger: These are few and far between. Not every family has
   a resident email 'expert'. And if they have such an 'expert', that
   person may be able to fix setup glitches, but not much more. Humans
   have a tendency to imagine that others are like us, but usually that's
   not at all the case, in particular when it comes to something like
   email experience.

- The actual user: For the actual user to notice something, there has
   to be a change in one of the fields that are displayed in the average
   folder overview. Now From is changed, and that's usually displayed,
   but that doesn't count because an EAI address may be seen for the
   first time. This is in particular important in a scenario where
   the user reads mail only from one device/MUA, or all devices/MUAs
   are non-EUA-aware.

That's why I think it should be *allowed* to tweak the subject. IMAP and 
POP server developers can still make the choice to not implement it, or 
to leave it configurable.

Regards,    Martin.

There's a big difference between labelling messages you want to filter out,
such as spam, and labelling messages that the *user* just wants to read
without annoyance or encumbrance.  The user doesn't care about downgrading;
the user just wants to read the messages.

> The actual user: For the actual user to notice something, there has

Explain why the user wants to notice anything.
My mother wouldn't understand what was going on, and would only be annoyed.
She might call her ISP's help line, which would be a disaster on anything
more than a tiny scale.

The problem is that this is a configuration decision for the client, not
for the server, but by altering the subject you're having the server make
the choice.  Bad.  And by definition, the client can't do it, because this
is specifically for old clients that don't understand.

Please let's leave this alone.

Hello Barry, others,

On first approximation, I agree. But next, the user may want to reply.

She may call her ISP's helpline if there's some special tag. Or she 
might not. But then she'll try to reply, and that won't work. Then a 
call to a helpline has a rather higher probability. And then, the same 
thing (not being able to reply) might happen again a day later, or a 
week later, or a month later, or what not. It will become very annoying 
to try to reply but not have it working.

It may be easier (it would definitely be easier for me, but of course, I 
don't want to claim that I'm in any way representative) to understand 
what's happening if all the mails that can't be replied to have the same 
label.

Also, imagine the call to the ISP. If she complains that she wasn't able 
to send, the helpline staff can ask "did the Subject say [foo]"? If yes, 
they already know the answer in most cases. Without a label, they'll 
have to ask all kinds of questions, many of which will be difficult 
because of privacy concerns, and that will take time.

I never worked at an ISP, or at a helpdesk, so I can't judge what's 
better, but it doesn't look so clear to me that no label is always better.

I agree that it's suboptimal that the server has to make the choice. But 
I'd still think it's better than the user not having any information at 
all, or the server not having a choice.

With my document editor hat off: I'm now against even allowing changes
to Subject, since I think it's a) not helpful to those users who have
several clients and know which one(s) support(s) internationalized mail
and b) confusing to many of the others.

Does that include changing straight UTF-8 to =?utf-8?B?<base64>= ?

I can see arguments for and against, somewhat separate from changes
that change what the user is expected to see.

R's,

Sorry, that was carelessly phrased. No. I meant substantive changes, not
the RFC2047 encoding already specified in the draft.

All,

Based on the doodle poll (http://www.doodle.com/3stamymgmeht29fk), we =
will meet at 8am US Eastern Tuesday April 17 (the earliest time where =
everyone is available).  The estimation is 90 minutes for the meeting.  =
For now, the current agenda is draft discussion of POP3 UTF8 =
(RFC5721bis), IMAP UTF8 (RFC5738bis), both downgrade drafts, and any =
other drafts to be considered.

I will send out detailed agenda again tomorrow, and friendly reminder to =
all editors to send an revision by April 12, so that everyone has enough =
time to review.  (And thanks to JianKang and others for RFC5721bis =
revision).

Thanks
Joseph

Folks, IETF rules for Interim, non-face-to-face, Meetings
require two week's formal notice, so we seem to have missed the
cutoff for doing this on the 17th.  Please stand by -- we will
get back to you about a revised plan within the next 24 hours.

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-05.txt
	Pages           : 20
	Date            : 2012-04-13

   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 in traditional message format.  In the process, message
   elements requiring internationalized treatment are recoded or removed
   and receivers are able to know that they received messages containing
   such elements even if they cannot treat the internationalized
   elements.

All,

I'm sorry that I  made a mistake last night not making announcement 2 weeks
in advance.  There will be no interim meeting at April 17.  I would like to
ask everyone to the poll for the next best time in the week of May 14 - 18.


By rules, announcement must be make in advance by 2 weeks, and given
arranging agenda and coordinating with IETF & IESG, the announcement is bes
to make by April 26.

Please follow the doodle link below for the poll by April 25.

Thanks
Joseph

&gt;&gt;&gt; Note, the range of the meeting time is the third week of<br>

I have been selected as the Applications Area Directorate (appsdir) reviewe=
r for this draft.  (For background on appsdir, please see http://trac.tools=
.ietf.org/area/app/trac/wiki/ApplicationsAreaDirectorate).

[NOTE: This is an early review request received by AppsDir.  We typically r=
eview documents that are in IETF Last Call, so please ignore the boilerplat=
e saying so.]

Please resolve these comments along with any other Last Call comments you m=
ay receive.  Please wait for direction from your document shepherd or AD be=
fore posting a new version of the draft.

Document: draft-ietf-eai-rfc5721bis-04
Title: POP3 Support for UTF-8
Reviewer: Murray S. Kucherawy
Review Date: April 22, 2012
IETF Last Call Date: n/a
IESG Telechat Date: n/a

Summary:
LANG fr
Ce document est presque pret a etre publie en tant qu'un RFC, mais il a que=
lques questions qui devraient etre resolues avant de la publication.
LANG en

Major Issues:

None.

Minor Issues:

1) Section 2: When LANG is issued with no parameters, thus requesting a lis=
t of supported languages, is that list expected to be ordered in any way?
It doesn't really matter, but the document should probably say one way or t=
he other.  If a list order is specified by one of the referenced RFCs, I mi=
ssed it.

2) Section 3.1: "The UTF8 command MAY fail."  This seems to be dangling. Ca=
n you say why, even if it's "for any operational reason" or something that
just sounds less random?

3) It seems to me the second and fifth paragraphs of Section 3.1 could be m=
erged, though that might make the fifth one even larger than it is.  It's
possible the second could simply be dropped in favour of the fifth as the f=
ormer seems to be a subset of the latter.  The authors might also want to
consider splitting the fifth one someplace, perhaps where it starts talking=
 about sizes.

4) Section 5 refers to the "UTF-8" Response Code, when it's actually "UTF8"=
.  This is a bit confusing.

5) Section 3.2: The USER argument to the UTF8 capability tells the client s=
omething about the USER, PASS and APOP commands.  As all of those are
basically authentication/credential commands, perhaps something less specif=
ic like "LOGIN", "AUTH" or "CRED" would be more appropriate?  Otherwise it =
looks more like it only applies to the USER command.

6) This document uses RFC2119 language.  In the Introduction, it says "emai=
l messages may be transmitted".  Suggest s/may/might/ or s/may/could/.

7) Similarly, there's a lot of use of non-caps "may" in Section 3.1.

8) Section 5, last paragraph: s/downconvert/down-convert/, and (alas) rathe=
r than talking about "mood", say something about having the resources to do=
wn-convert where it didn't before or something like that.

Nits:

1) The end of the second paragraph of the introduction is a long sentence t=
hat contains a list of what this document accomplishes.  I suggest turning
it into a bulleted list rather than "This document does A, and B, and C, an=
d D, and ..."

2) There's frequent reference to "UTF-8 headers" where, in at least some ca=
ses, "UTF-8 header fields" is probably more accurate.

3) There's inconsistent use of reference name styles when referring to othe=
r drafts, e.g. [popimap-downgrade] vs. [I-D.ietf-eai-simpledowngrade].  Sug=
gest converting the former to look like the latter.

4) Section 3.1: "Note that even in UTF-8 mode, MIME binary content-transfer=
-encoding is still not permitted."  Can a reference be added to where that'=
s stipulated?

5) Section 6: "The section 2 and 3" and "The section 5" need to be changed =
to just "Sections 2 and 3" and "Section 5", respectively.

6) Section 7: I'm not a fan of normative language in Security Consideration=
s. Normative stuff belongs in earlier sections.  I suggest changing the MUS=
T
in the second paragraph to "are strongly advised to".

7) Section 7: "integrity-protect" should be "protect the integrity of", and=
 there should be a comma after "[RFC2595]".

8) Section 3.1: "high guesses are better than small ones"; "small" should p=
robably be "low".

The goal of this draft is to pare back the downgrade process in IMAP
and POP servers to the minimum required to create a message that can
be presented to a non-EAI mail client, and more or less looks like
the EAI original.  It presents a simple set of downgrades that will
give the recipient a reasonable idea of what the message said, and
will still allow replies to non-EAI addresses in the header, while
being a lot less work than prior proposals.

My only suggestion is that in section 1, it'd be worth reminding
people that since a non-EAI client can't send mail to an EAI address,
there are no modifications to an EAI message that would allow a
pre-EAI client to interoperate with EAI mail. That means a decision
about what to do with downgraded message elements is aesthetic, not
technical.

R's,
John

Hi,

it's somewhat unclear to me why this is permitted, supported,
meaningful, etc:

  a login arnt foo
  b enable utf8=accept
  c select inbox
  d uid fetch 1:* body.peek[header.fields (subject from to cc date)]

Note that EAI syntax is enabled by command b, but EAI use not enabled by c.

Hi Arnt,

I am entirely lacking coffee today, so can you please spell out:
1). what is the problem
2). what change you are proposing to fix it.

Thanks,
Alexey

I see two obviously useful cases.

1. Client wants EAI.
2. Client doesn't.

But 5738bis provides three settings.

1. Client wants EAI syntax and messages.
2. Client wants EAI syntax but not EAI messages
3. Client knows nothing about EAI.

(The command sequence above provides the middle case.)

> 2). what change you are proposing to fix it.

I'm not proposing. I'm wondering why the document offers three cases.

I'm not saying "b enable utf8=accept" followed by "c select inbox" is
pointless, I'm asking what its point is.

Yes, and I think it's very useful for those reasons:
1. give the recipient a reasonable idea of what the message said
2. a lot less work

That aside, the reviews that are coming in are focusing on security issues:
- What implications do either of the pop/imap downgrade proposals have
on client processing of any sorts of signatures?
- What implications are there on any Sieve processing in the client? [1]
- What possible attacks can take advantage of this sort of thing to
fool people during an expected transition period?

I'm not sure how we should respond to these.  We seem to have
consensus that this sort of processing is useful to help users through
a transition.  My sense is that we don't think the security concerns
are serious.

Barry

[1] While Sieve processing is normally done in the MDA, there are
clients that do Sieve processing.

well... I'm biased, as I'm one of the reviwers who commented about 
security issues :-)

but... I recently held a security firedrill test: I sent out something 
whch was clearly a phising message to collect credentials, a message which 
did break all security mechanisms, signatures, etc... and this message 
(BTW, a pure ASCII message!) was sent not to end users... it was sent to 
e-mail administrators, and to local security administrators within my 
constituency (the Italian Academic and Research Network) at first, and 
then sent to other research networks around the World... just localized in 
the local language:

  - 36%  (yes... 1 out of 3) responded submitting credentials (the real
    ones).

I'm not only biased... I'm seriously concerned! :-)

all the best!

PS: maybe users are less simple-minded than administators... who knows!

Uh.

If lots of EAI messages end up being generated without any EAI
addresses, and lots of conventional clients remain in use for a long
time, then I'm wrong about the signatures. Happily, in that case server
could legally add more fidelity to enable signature verification: There
is no MUST NOT in the simpledowngrade draft.

Whether or not it's a good idea for end users can be argued either way, but my
perspective is different: I look at this from a service provider's viewpoint.
And from that viewpoint downgrading looks likely to be a massive support call
generator. As such, I think it's unlikely that most providers will ever deploy
such a mechanism. I think providers are more likely to use an approach where
mailboxes are transitioned on user request and once a transition is done that
mailbox cannot be accessed by a non-EAI client.

This doesn't mean that downgrading is useless - it will be needed if a mailbox
is transitioned in error and has to be downgraded to non-EAI. But that case
raises far fewer issues than mixed client access does.

Since my previous rant on this topic appears to have been ignored, I'll again
point out that this concern is fundamentally 20 years too late and many
trillions of messages short.

OK, if we're really sure we want to explore this rathole, then I'm going to
insist that we go all the way to the bottom.

DKIM first. DKIM is of course going to fail, but since the focus of DKIM isn't
to be an end-to-end mechanism (various attempts to promote it as such
notwithstanding), I'd have to say this is not a big concern.

Multipart/signed is a different problem. I'll first note that the
multipart/signed specification says signed content is constrained to be 7bit 
(RFC 1847 section 2.1.), so that's an issue for EAI irrespective of any of this
downgrade business. So perhaps we need to define an additional container for
EAI content that will fit inside a multipart/signed. Application/global? (We
could also reuse message/global, but I don't like that because the semantics
aren't correct.)

Note that multipart/global-signed is NOT an option. There's lots of
special-case handling of multipart/signed out there that cannot be easily
upgraded.

But let's assume that the right thing to do is to remove the restriction on
multipart/signed. (I think that's a terrible idea, but let's suppose.) Well,
the solution then is to wrap the multipart/signed on the outside if you want to
preserve the signature.

Either way solving the problem is effectively outside the scope of the
downgrading specification.

Next up are signature schemes that employ their own private media type. Since
such schemes by definition cannot carry objects with message semantics in a
standardized way, they aren't going to be affected by either EAI or EAI
downgrading.

And as for the various signature schemes that are embedded in text parts,
they're essentially the same as using a private media type. Yes, the content
can end up multiply encoded, but that's already the case and presumably the
various agents out there can deal with it.

So the bottom line is that if signatures are seen to be an issue, they're an
issue with EAI in general, not specifically with downgrading. And if you want
to solve it, any real solution is almost certainly going to deal with the
downgrading problem.
 
> - What implications are there on any Sieve processing in the client? [1]

Since a non-EAI-capable client is never going to have seen or have had to deal
with EAI messages, I'm not sure I see a big issue here - and most of the
smaller issues that this raises are also created by the use of constructs like
message/global, which have to be dealt with no matter what.

> - What possible attacks can take advantage of this sort of thing to
> fool people during an expected transition period?

Wrong question. The correct question is what additional attacks does this make
possible given that all email headers are trivially spoofable (which makes it
possible to send different versions of the same message to different people
while making it look like they got the same thing) and given the existence of
multipart/alternative. And it should be up to the complainers to come up with
serious examples of this, because otherwise you're in effect demanding proof of
a negative, which is bogus.

The issue that I believe caused us to stick our foot into this tarpit is 
that a system with mixed EAI and non-EAI users is likely to get EAI 
messages for non-EAI users.  None of the options are great, reject them as 
they come in, pretend they don't exist for POP and IMAP users, or 
downgrade.  Rejecting will lose mail that could be delivered if the user 
notifies the service to upgrade between the time the message arrives and 
the next time he reads his mail.  Pretending the mail isn't there has 
correctly been described as a cruel joke.

So I think that you can make a reasonable case that downgrade is the least 
bad of the three, but I also do not want to require or encourage an 
elaborate transition scheme.

The basic answer to any comment along the lines of "this sucks" is "you're 
right, and the way to unsuck it is to give the user an EAI mail client."

Given the range of technically trivial attacks, e.g., Claudio's simple 
phish which fooled 1/3 of the admins he sent it to, why would anyone waste 
their time on something specific to the 0.1% of people who are reading 
downgraded EAI messages?  Users who care shound find an EAI mail client.

Again, it depends on your perspective. "Least bad" for the user is often not
the same as "least bad" for the service provider. And the reality is service
providers tend rank lower costs above user convenience.

> The basic answer to any comment along the lines of "this sucks" is "you're

Agreed. And what this means in the service provider space is that they'll have
an EAI-capable webmail solution before they would even consider offering EAI an
EAI-capable mail store. But if anything that moves things away from
downgrading, because their response to user complaints about the mailbox being
inaccessible is going to be, "Why not use our webmail?".

Depends on the service provider.  Random giant mail host, sure. 
University IT department who have to do whatever the faculty wants, no 
matter how ill-informed, maybe not.

I agree that a lot of places will do what you said, and roll out an entire 
EAI product at once, but if you offer POP and IMAP to people who aren't 
your employees, people will use whatever crud MUAs they want.

AFAICT this shows that signatures either aren't being validated or that the
results of those validations are being ignored in a significant number of
cases.

Either way the implications for EAI downgrading are ... what, exactly? If
signatures really don't matter, why aren't the folks concerned about security
focusing on that issue, instead of worrying about EAI downgrading, which in the
context of email signatures is demonstrably a nonissue?

likely both of the above. And people just still do not care, or just have 
a wrongly configured MUA and security system, and that's why they do not 
care (bad user experience).

I guess they (we) are focusing on this! The above IS the real problem, and 
it has nothing specific with EAI.

Indeed my comments about both the "downgrading" documents are not about 
worries generated by the fact that EAI downgrading breaks security (this 
is a non issue, or a minimal issue compared to the abov general problem), 
but about the way that the "Security Considerations" sections are written.
IMHO these sections should describe correctly (and clearly) the scenarios 
which can happen when a specification is implemented. E.g. declare clearly 
the potential problems, even if they happen in 0.1% of cases.
If this is done, then I'm ok with the documents :-)

For what it is worth, I still believe the signature issue is a small
part of a more general issue:
how do I manage user expectation of what a message should look like so
that it is considered
valid?

As a user, I have certain assumptions about what I see when I get mail
via specific MUAs (e.g.
a web client, a desktop client, etc.).  If I get a few messages that
undergo downgrade (because
my friends with non-ASCII names start using their real names in
addresses or domain names or
as targets of files like _Friend_Name_Resume.pdf), that may not push
me to upgrade all MUAs
that can reach a specific mail store.  But I get used to seeing a bit
of junk as a result, and I get
used to a few things being missing that used to be there.

Then I start getting messages from other folks that has a bit more
junk in it, but it looks like
the original junk.  How can I tell that this junk is as benign as the
other junk?  How about if it is
missing more than the original crop missed, but otherwise looks
similar?  How can I tell whether
what's missing is the result of downgrade, elision at the source, or
something else? How can a naive
user?  The signature piece is a piece of this (how do I react when
something tells me the signature
is "broken"), but just a tiny piece of the overall assessment of
validity (or "normalcy", maybe?).

If people didn't make security judgements based on perceived
"validity", this would be a straight
usability issue.  But they do, and downgrading (especially when it
elides data as freely as this proposal) makes
it harder.  It may be a necessary evil for a transitional period, but
I think it should be marked as such
prominently--that's why I suggested it stay off the standards track.

As I said, though, I will not fall on my sword if I'm in the rough on
this:  no appeals or even overly loud
gnashing of teeth will come from my corner.  And to reiterate the
other point I made:  I feel the same
way about pretty much all the downgrade approaches.  Whether we are
trying to route around traditional
in-path servers or UAs, it just does not work well enough to be worth it.

My two cents as an individual,

regards,

Ted

I entirely agree.  At some point we (for a very general construction of 
we) will have to figure out how to show messages in a way that gets the 
message through that this message is real, but it's a very hard problem.

It certainly has nothing to do with EAI.

I'm sorry, but the point you're making here completely eludes me. Barry asked
for information to help him respond regarding the effects of downgrading on
three specific things: (1) Signatures, (2) Sieve, and (3) Additional attacks
facilitated by downgrading. I responded with an analysis that basically said
the first two are demonstrably nonissues and the third is badly posed. You then
responded with a note that essentially said signatures seem to be fairly
worthless in practice. And now you appear to be saying that the real problem is
the security considerations section lacks information about certain scenarios of
concern, but I have no idea what these scenarios are.

In any case, assuming these scenarios involve some sort of trickery in regards
to what headers are or aren't displayed by different clients, I'll fall back to 
my original point that given the ease with which email headers can be forged,
coupled with the uncertainty as to what client a given user might use, does
downgrading really change the the attack surface in any significant way? I
rather think it does not.

Now, I suppose you can argue that we should describe what amount to tiny
twigs on the attack tree even when there are enormous branches that are far
more accessible, but I'm going to have to disagree. The problem with devoting
time to what are effectively nonissues is that people waste their time reading
that verbiage when there are far more important things for them to be worrying
about.

But I freely admit I may be entirely incorrect about all this because I really
have no idea what scenarios are that you're concerned about.
