In case you're still following the SPF / Caller-ID situation with
sender authentication...

Microsoft will put out an official press release later today or
tomorrow but I thought you might like a heads-up.

The main news is that as a result of MAAWG and MARID meetings last
week we think we have found a way to converge the two specs.

I have a few links under "Fast Facts" at http://www.mengwong.com/ you
can look at.

Technical details are at
http://archives.listbox.com/spf-discuss@v2.listbox.com/200405/0276.html

Basically the good news is that we're trying to give people the best
of both worlds.
