Deployment of secure mail is currently being slowed by the problems of user agent migration and key distribution. In addition, problems of forgeries and spam are increasing the importance of providing some level of strong authentication with mail. This BOF will discuss possibilities of using host and mail gateway level mail secrurity and using DNS for mail security key distribution.
