OpenPGPEmailSummit: EmailValidation
Workshop at 2nd OpenPGP Email Summit, Dec 2015 run by Nicolai Josuttis
With this approach we want to establish a quick backward compatible solution to validate email addresses of UIDs of OpenPGP keys.
The key approach is:
- Define a standard signature format to signal successfull email validation
- The standard format would be:
- expires after 1 year
- having a "signature notation" defining when/how/what was validated as JSON value
- The standard format allows email clients to process them accordingly
- E.g.: List who validated the email address or prefer validated email addresses over those not validated.
- But even existing email clients can benefit from them
- According to the WebOfTrust a user can grant trust (and therefore priority) to emails with specific signatures
- The standard format would be:
- Establish some initial validation servers to perform that validations on request
Key properties of the approach are:
- No change of existing key server infrastructure or protocol
- Existing email clients can use it
