 Abstract
 
    This memo defines a MIME content-type that may be used by a mail user
-   agent (UA) or electronic mail gateway to report the disposition of a
-   message after it has been sucessfully delivered to a recipient.  This
-   content-type is intended to be machine-processable.  Additional
+   agent (MUA) or electronic mail gateway to report the disposition of a
+   message after it has been successfully delivered to a recipient.
+   This content-type is intended to be machine-processable.  Additional
    message headers are also defined to permit Message Disposition
    Notifications (MDNs) to be requested by the sender of a message.  The
    purpose is to extend Internet Mail to support functionality often
    found in other messaging systems, such as X.400 and the proprietary
    "LAN-based" systems, and often referred to as "read receipts,"
-   "acknowledgements," or "receipt notifications."  The intention is to
+   "acknowledgements", or "receipt notifications."  The intention is to
-   do this while respecting the privacy concerns that have often been
+   do this while respecting privacy concerns, which have often been
    expressed when such functions have been discussed in the past.
 
    Because many messages are sent between the Internet and other
    messaging systems (such as X.400 or the proprietary "LAN-based"
    systems), the MDN protocol is designed to be useful in a multi-
    protocol messaging environment.  To this end, the protocol described
    in this memo provides for the carriage of "foreign" addresses, in
    addition to those normally used in Internet Mail.  Additional
    attributes may also be defined to support "tunneling" of foreign
    notifications through Internet Mail.

*1.  Introduction
 
-   This memo defines a MIME content-type [5] for message
+   This memo defines a [RFC-MIME-MEDIA] content-type for message
disposition notifications (MDNs).  An MDN can be used to notify the
sender of a message of any of several conditions that may occur after
successful delivery, such as display of the message contents,
printing of the message, deletion (without display) of the message,
or the recipient's refusal to provide MDNs.  The
"message/disposition-notification" content-type defined herein is
intended for use within the framework of the "multipart/report"
-   content type defined in RFC 1892 [7].
+   content type defined in [RFC-REPORT].

> This memo defines the format of the notifications and the 
-   RFC 822 headers used to request them.
+   [RFC-MSGFMT] headers used to request them.

-   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 RFC 2119.
 
-1.1 Purposes
+1.1.  Purposes

>   The MDNs defined in this memo are expected to serve several purposes:

>   (a)  Inform human beings of the disposition of messages after
-        succcessful delivery, in a manner which is largely independent of
+        successful delivery, in a manner that is largely independent of
human language;

>   (b)  Allow mail user agents to keep track of the disposition of
messages sent, by associating returned MDNs with earlier message
transmissions;

    (c)  Convey disposition notification requests and disposition
         notifications between Internet Mail and "foreign" mail systems
         via a gateway;
 
    (d)  Allow "foreign" notifications to be tunneled through a MIME-
         capable message system and back into the original messaging
         system that issued the original notification, or even to a third
         messaging system;
 
    (e)  Allow language-independent, yet reasonably precise, indications
         of the disposition of a message to be delivered.
 
-1.2 Requirements
+1.2.  Requirements
 
    These purposes place the following constraints on the notification
    protocol:
 
-   (a)  It must be readable by humans, as well as being machine-parsable.
+   (a)  It must be readable by humans, and must be machine-parsable.

    (b)  It must provide enough information to allow message senders (or
         their user agents) to unambiguously associate an MDN with the
         message that was sent and the original recipient address for
-        which the MDN is issued (if such information is available),
+        which the MDN was issued (if such information is available),
even if the message was forwarded to another recipient address.
 
    (c)  It must also be able to describe the disposition of a message
         independent of any particular human language or of the
         terminology of any particular mail system.
 
-   (d)  The specification must be extensible in order to accomodate
+   (d)  The specification must be extensible in order to accommodate
         future requirements.
 
+1.3.  Terminology
+
+   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 [RFC-KEYWORDS].
+
+   All syntax descriptions use the ABNF specified by [RFC-MSGFMT], in
+   which the lexical tokens (used below) are defined: "atom", "CRLF",
+   "mailbox", "msg-id", and "text".  The following lexical tokens are
+   defined in the definition of the Content-Type header in [RFC-MIME-
+   BODY]: "attribute" and "value".

* 2.  Requesting Message Disposition Notifications
>   Message disposition notifications are requested by including a
Disposition-Notification-To header in the message.  Further
information to be used by the recipient's [INS(rfc3798)[M]]UA in generating the MDN
may be provided by [INS(rfc3798)[also]] including Original-Recipient and/or
Disposition-Notification-Options headers in the message.

頭を含めることにより要求します。[[受信者]]の [[MUA]] が [[MDN]]
を生成するに当たって使用する更なる情報をメッセージの

[CODE(822)[Disposition-Notification-Option]]]]
頭も含めることにより提供しても構いません。

* 2.1[INS(rfc3798)[.]]  The Disposition-Notification-To Header
>   A request [DEL(rfc3798)[that]] [INS(rfc3798)[for]] 
the receiving user agent [INS(rfc3798)[to]] issue message disposition
notifications is made by placing a Disposition-Notification-To header
into the message.  The syntax of the 
header, [DEL(rfc3798)[using the ABNF of RFC 822 [2],]] is

[[受信]]した[[利用者エージェント]]がメッセージ配置通知を発行するようにとの[[要求]]は[[メッセージ]]に
[CODE(822)[Disposition-Notification-To]] [[頭]]を入れることにより行います。
この頭の構文は次の通りです。

>
-   mdn-request-header = "Disposition-Notification-To" ":" [DEL(rfc3798)[1#mailbox]] [INS(rfc3798)[mailbox *("," mailbox)]]

[DEL(rfc3798)[
>   The mailbox token is as specified in RFC 822 [2].

[[字句]] [CODE(ABNF)[[[mailbox]]]] は [[RFC 822]] で規定されているものです。
]DEL]

>   The presence of a Disposition-Notification-To header in a message is
merely a request for an MDN.  The recipients' user agents are always
free to silently ignore such a request.  Alternatively, an explicit
denial of the request for information about the disposition of the
message may be sent using the "denied" disposition in an MDN.

メッセージにおける [CODE(822)[Disposition-Notification-To]]
頭の存在は単なる [[MDN]] の要求です。
[[受信者]]の[[利用者エージェント]]はこの要求を常に黙って自由に無視できます。
その代わりに [[MDN]] の [CODE(MDN)[[[denied]]]] 
配置を使ってメッセージの配置に関する情報の要求の拒絶を明示的に送信しても構いません。

>   An MDN MUST NOT itself have a Disposition-Notification-To header. 
An MDN MUST NOT be generated in response to an MDN.

[[MDN]] 自体は [CODE(822)[Disposition-Notigication-To]] 頭を持っていては'''なりません'''。
[[MDN]] を [[MDN]] への[[応答]]として生成しては'''なりません'''。

>   [DEL(rfc3798)[At most one MDN may be issued on behalf of each particular recipient by their user agent.]] [INS(rfc3798)[A user agent MUST NOT issue more than one MDN on behalf of each particular recipient.]]  
That is, once an MDN has been issued on behalf
of a recipient, no further MDNs may be issued on behalf of that
recipient, even if another disposition is performed on the message.
However, if a message is forwarded, an MDN may have [INS(rfc3798)[been]] issued for
the recipient doing the forwarding and the recipient of the forwarded
message may also cause an MDN to be generated.

[[利用者エージェント]]はそれぞれの[[受信者]]について複数回 [[MDN]]
を発行しては'''なりません'''。つまり、ある受信者について1度 [[MDN]]
が発行されたら、以後そのメッセージに別の配置が取られたとしても [[MDN]] 
をその受信者について再度発行してはいけません。
但し、メッセージが[[転送]]された場合は転送を行った受信者について [[MDN]]
を発行しても構いませんし、転送メッセージの受信者も [[MDN]]
を生成して構いません。

>  While Internet standards normally do not specify the behavior of user
interfaces, it is strongly recommended that the user agent obtain the
user's consent before sending an MDN.  This consent could be obtained
for each message through some sort of prompt or dialog box, or
globally through the user's setting of a preference.  The user might
also indicate globally that MDNs are [INS(rfc3798)[to]] never [DEL(rfc3798)[to]] be sent or that a
"denied" MDN is always sent in response to a request for an MDN.

インターネット規格は通常[[利用者界面]]の動作を規定しませんが、
[[利用者エージェント]]は [[MDN]] を送信する前に[[利用者]]の同意を得ることを強く推奨します。
この同意は問合せや[[対話箱]]のようなもので得ることもできましょうし、
利用者の設定であらかじめ得ておくことも可能でしょう。
利用者は [[MDN]] を絶対に送らないことや [CODE(MDN)[[[denied]]]] [[MDN]]
を常に [[MDN]] 要求に対する応答として送信することを望むかもしれません。

>    MDNs SHOULD NOT be sent automatically if the address in the
Disposition-Notification-To header differs from the address in the
Return-Path header (see [DEL(rfc3798)[RFC 822 [2] ]] [INS(rfc3798)[ [RFC-MSGFMT] ]]).  In this case, confirmation
from the user SHOULD be obtained, if possible.  If obtaining consent
is not possible (e.g., because the user is not online at the time),
then an MDN SHOULD NOT be sent.

The comparison MUST be case-sensitive for the local-part and 
case-insensitive for the domain part.

implementation may pick one to use for the comparison, or treat the
situation as a failure of the comparison.

fails or more than one address is specified is to reduce

比較失敗時や複数の番地が指定された時に自動的に送信するべきではないのは、
メイルの循環や [[MDN]] が[[メイル爆弾]]に使われる危険性を減らすためです。

>   A message that contains a Disposition-Notification-To header SHOULD
also contain a Message-ID header as specified in [DEL(rfc3798)[RFC 822 [2] ]] [INS(rfc3798)[ [RFC-MSGFMT] ]].  This
will permit automatic correlation of MDNs with [INS(rfc3798)[their]] original
messages by user agents.

[CODE(822)[Disposition-Notification-To]] 頭を含むメッセージは、
[[RFC 2822]] で規定されている [CODE(822)[[[Message-ID]]]] 
頭も含むべきです。そうすれば[[利用者エージェント]]は [[MDN]]

> If [DEL(rfc3798)[it is desired to]] [INS(rfc3798)[the]] request [INS(rfc3798)[for]] message disposition notifications for some
recipients and not others [INS(rfc3798)[is desired]], two copies of the message
should be sent, one with a[DEL(rfc3798)[n]] Disposition-Notification-To header and one
without.  Many of the other headers of the message (e.g., To, [DEL(rfc3798)[cc]] [INS(rfc3798)[Cc]])
will be the same in both copies.  The recipients in the respective
message envelopes determine for whom message disposition
notifications are requested and for whom they are not.  If desired,
the Message-ID header may be the same in both copies of the message.
Note that there are other situations (e.g., [DEL(rfc3798)[bcc]] [INS(rfc3798)[Bcc]]) in which it is
necessary to send multiple copies of a message with slightly
different headers.  The combination of such situations and the need
to request MDNs for a subset of all recipients may result in more
than two copies of a message being sent, some with a 
Disposition-Notification-To header and some without.

受信者の一部にはメッセージ配置通知を要求し、他の受信者には要求したくない時は、
[CODE(822)[[[Disposition-Notification-To]]]] 頭があるものとないものの

[CODE(822)[[[To]]]] や [CODE(822)[[[Cc]]]] は両者共同じにします。
各メッセージの[[封筒]]にはそれぞれメッセージ配置通知を要求する[[受信者]]と要求しない受信者を指定します。
それが望ましければ両メッセージ共 [CODE(822)[[[Message-ID]]]] 
頭は同じにしても構いません。ちなみに、他にも頭が幾分異なるメッセージを複数送信するのが必要な状況があります
(例えば [CODE(822)[[[Bcc]]]] の時)。そうした状況と受信者の一部で [[MDN]] 
要求が必要な場合との組合せで [CODE(822)[[[Disposition-Notification-To]]]]
頭が含まれるものと含まれないものも入れて3種類以上のメッセージが必要となるかもしれません。

other than "failed" in response to the request.  An importance of

message or part of the message is up to the [INS(rfc3798)[M]]UA generating the
MDN.  However, in the case of encrypted messages requesting
MDNs, encrypted message text MUST be returned, if it is returned
at all, only in its original encrypted form.

Since these fields are defined according to the rules 
of [DEL(rfc3798)[RFC 822 [2] ]] [INS(rfc3798)[ [RFC-MSGFMT] ]],
the same conventions for continuation lines and comments
apply. Notification fields may be continued onto multiple lines by
beginning each additional line with a SPACE or HTAB.  
Text [DEL(rfc3798)[which]] [INS(rfc3798)[that]] 
appears in parentheses is considered a comment and not part of the
contents of that notification field.  Field names are 
case-insensitive, so the names of notification fields may be spelled in
any combination of upper and lower case letters.  Comments in
notification fields may use the "encoded-word" construct defined 
in [DEL(rfc3798)[RFC 2047 [6] ]] [INS(rfc3798)[ [RFC-MIME-HEADER] ]].

欄は [[RFC 2822]] の規則に従って定義しますから、
[[継続行]]や[[注釈]]についても同じ規則を適用します。
通知欄は [CODE(ABNF)[[[SPACE]]]] や [CODE(ABNF)[[[HTAB]]]]
で始まる追加行を使って複数行に継続できます。
括弧内に表れる文章は[[注釈]]とし、
その通知欄の内容の一部とはしません。欄名は大文字・

通知欄の注釈は [[RFC 2047]] で定義される [CODE(ABNF)[[[encoded-word]]]]
構造を使って構いません。

***3.1.2[INS(rfc3798)[.]]  "*-type" subfields
>    Several fields consist of a "-type" subfield, followed by a 
semi-colon, followed by "*text".  For these fields, the keyword used in
the address-type or MTA-type subfield indicates the expected format
of the address or MTA-name that follows.

幾つかの欄は [CODE[-type]] 部分欄とセミコロンと
[CODE(ABNF)[*text]] から成ります。そのような欄では
[CODE(ABNF)[address-type]] 部分欄または [CODE(ABNF)[MTA-type]]

* 6.  Security Considerations
>    The following security considerations apply when using MDNs:

[[MDN]] を使う時は次の安全上の考慮が必要です。

**6.1[INS(rfc3798)[.]]  Forgery
>   MDNs may be forged as easily as ordinary Internet electronic mail.
User agents and automatic mail handling facilities (such as mail
distribution list exploders) that wish to make automatic use of MDNs
should take appropriate precautions to minimize the potential damage
from denial-of-service attacks.

>    Security threats related to forged MDNs include the sending of:
 
    (a)  A falsified disposition notification when the indicated
-        disposition of the message has not actually ocurred,
+        disposition of the message has not actually occurred,
 
    (b)  Unsolicited MDNs
 
-6.2 Confidentiality

-   Another dimension of security is confidentiality.  There may be cases
+   Another dimension of security is privacy.  There may be cases
in which a message recipient does not wish the disposition of
-   messages addressed to him to be known or is concerned that the
+   messages addressed to him to be known, or is concerned that the sending of
-   sending of MDNs may reveal other confidential information (e.g., when
-   the message was read).  In this situation, it is acceptable for the
-   UA to issue "denied" MDNs or to silently ignore requests for MDNs.
+   MDNs may reveal other sensitive information (e.g., when the message
+   was read).  In this situation, it is acceptable for the MUA to issue
+   "denied" MDNs or to silently ignore requests for MDNs.
 
    If the Disposition-Notification-To header is passed on unmodified
    when a message is distributed to the subscribers of a mailing list,
    the subscribers to the list may be revealed to the sender of the
    original message by the generation of MDNs.
 
    Headers of the original message returned in part 3 of the
    multipart/report could reveal confidential information about host
    names and/or network topology inside a firewall.
 
    An unencrypted MDN could reveal confidential information about an
    encrypted message, especially if all or part of the original message
    is returned in part 3 of the multipart/report.  Encrypted MDNs are
    not defined in this specification.
 
-   In general, any optional MDN field may be omitted if the Reporting UA
-   site or user determines that inclusion of the field would impose too
-   great a compromise of site confidentiality.  The need for such
+   In general, any optional MDN field may be omitted if the Reporting
+   MUA site or user determines that inclusion of the field would impose
+   too great a compromise of site confidentiality.  The need for such
    confidentiality must be balanced against the utility of the omitted
    information in MDNs.
 
-6.3 Non-Repudiation
 
-   Within the framework of today's Internet Mail, the MDNs defined in
-   this document provide valuable information to the mail user; however,
-   MDNs can not be relied upon as a guarantee that a message was or was
-   not not seen by the recipient.  Even if MDNs are not actively forged,
-   they may be lost in transit.  The MDN issuing mechanism may be
-   bypassed in some manner by the recipient.
+   In some cases, someone with access to the message stream may use the
+   MDN request mechanism to monitor the mail reading habits of a target.
+   If the target is known to generate MDN reports, they could add a
+   disposition-notification-to field containing the envelope from
+   address along with a source route.  The source route is ignored in
+   the comparison so the addresses will always match.  But if the source
+   route is honored when the notification is sent, it could direct the
+   message to some other destination.  This risk can be minimized by not
+   sending MDN's automatically.
+
+6.3.  Non-Repudiation
+
+   MDNs do not provide non-repudiation with proof of delivery.  Within
+   the framework of today's Internet Mail, the MDNs defined in this
+   document provide valuable information to the mail user; however, MDNs
+   cannot be relied upon as a guarantee that a message was or was not
+   seen by the recipient.  Even if MDNs are not actively forged, they
+   may be lost in transit.  The recipient may bypass the MDN issuing
+   mechanism in some manner.
+
+   One possible solution for this purpose can be found in RFC 2634
+   [SEC-SERVICES].
+
+6.4.  Mail Bombing
+
+   The MDN request mechanism introduces an additional way of mailbombing
+   a mailbox.  The MDN request notification provides an address to which
+   MDN's should be sent.  It is possible for an attacking agent to send
+   a potentially large set of messages to otherwise unsuspecting third
+   party recipients with a false "disposition-notification-to:" address.
+   Automatic, or simplistic processing of such requests would result in
+   a flood of MDN notifications to the target of the attack.  Such an
+   attack could overrun the capacity of the targeted mailbox and deny
+   service.
+
+   For that reason, MDN's SHOULD NOT be sent automatically where the
+   "disposition-notification-to:" address is different from the envelope
+   MAIL FROM address.  See section 2.1 for further discussion.

* 8.  Guidelines for Gatewaying MDNs
 
    NOTE:  This section provides non-binding recommendations for the
    construction of mail gateways that wish to provide semi-transparent
    disposition notifications between the Internet and another electronic
    mail system.  Specific MDN gateway requirements for a particular pair
    of mail systems may be defined by other documents.
 
-8.1 Gatewaying from other mail systems to MDNs
+8.1.  Gatewaying from other mail systems to MDNs
 
-   A mail gateway may issue an MDN to convey the contents of a "foreign"
-   disposition notification over Internet Mail.  When there are
-   appropriate mappings from the foreign notification elements to MDN
+   A mail gateway may issue an MDN to convey the contents of a "foreign"
+   disposition notification over Internet Mail.  When there are
+   appropriate mappings from the foreign notification elements to MDN
    fields, the information may be transmitted in those MDN fields.
    Additional information (such as might be needed to tunnel the foreign
    notification through the Internet) may be defined in extension MDN
    fields.  (Such fields should be given names that identify the foreign
-   mail protocol, e.g. X400-* for X.400 protocol elements)
+   mail protocol, e.g., X400-* for X.400 protocol elements).
 
    The gateway must attempt to supply reasonable values for the
    Reporting-UA, Final-Recipient, and Disposition fields.  These will
    normally be obtained by translating the values from the foreign
    notification into their Internet-style equivalents.  However, some
    loss of information is to be expected.
 
-   The sender-specified recipient address, and the original message-id,
+   The sender-specified recipient address and the original message-id,
    if present in the foreign notification, should be preserved in the
    Original-Recipient and Original-Message-ID fields.
 
    The gateway should also attempt to preserve the "final" recipient
    address from the foreign system.  Whenever possible, foreign protocol
    elements should be encoded as meaningful printable ASCII strings.
 
    For MDNs produced from foreign disposition notifications, the name of
    the gateway MUST appear in the MDN-Gateway field of the MDN.
 
-8.2 Gatewaying from MDNs to other mail systems
+8.2.  Gatewaying from MDNs to other mail systems
 
    It may be possible to gateway MDNs from the Internet into a foreign
    mail system.  The primary purpose of such gatewaying is to convey
    disposition information in a form that is usable by the destination
    system.  A secondary purpose is to allow "tunneling" of MDNs through
-   foreign mail systems, in case the MDN may be gatewayed back into the
+   foreign mail systems in case the MDN may be gatewayed back into the
    Internet.
 
    In general, the recipient of the MDN (i.e., the sender of the
    original message) will want to know, for each recipient:  the closest
    available approximation to the original recipient address, and the
    disposition (displayed, printed, etc.).
 
    If possible, the gateway should attempt to preserve the Original-
-   Recipient address and Original-Message-ID (if present), in the
+   Recipient address and Original-Message-ID (if present) in the
    resulting foreign disposition report.
 
-   If it is possible to tunnel an MDN through the destination
-   environment, the gateway specification may define a means of
-   preserving the MDN information in the disposition reports used by
-   that environment.
+   If it is possible to tunnel an MDN through the destination
+   environment, the gateway specification may define a means of
+   preserving the MDN information in the disposition reports used by
+   that environment.
+
+8.3.  Gatewaying of MDN-requests to other mail systems
+
+   By use of the separate disposition-notification-to request header,
+   this specification offers a richer functionality than most, if not
+   all, other email systems.  In most other email systems, the
+   notification recipient is identical to the message sender as
+   indicated in the "from" address.  There are two interesting cases
+   when gatewaying into such systems:
+
+   1) If the address in the disposition-notification-to header is
+      identical to the address in the SMTP "MAIL FROM", the expected
+      behavior will result, even if the disposition-notification-to
+      information is lost.  Systems should propagate the MDN request.
+
+   2) If the address in the disposition-notification-to header is
+      different from the address in the SMTP "MAIL FROM", gatewaying
+      into a foreign system without a separate notification address will
+      result in unintended behavior.  This is especially important when
+      the message arrives via a mailing list expansion software that may
+      specifically replace the SMTP "MAIL FROM" address with an
+      alternate address.  In such cases, the MDN request should not be
+      gatewayed and should be silently dropped.  This is consistent with
+      other forms of non-support for MDN.
 
* 9.  Example
 
    NOTE:  This example is provided as illustration only, and is not
    considered part of the MDN protocol specification.  If the example
    conflicts with the protocol definition above, the example is wrong.
 
    Likewise, the use of *-type subfield names or extension fields in
    this example is not to be construed as a definition for those type
    names or extension fields.

+Appendix A - Changes from RFC 2298
+
+   The document has new editors.
+
+   The dispositions "denied", and "failed" were removed from the
+   document reflecting the lack of implementation or usage at this time.
+
+   The disposition modifiers "warning", "superseded", "expired",
+   "mailbox-terminated" have not seen actual implementation.  They have
+   been deleted from this document.  The extension modifier, as of yet
+   unused, has been retained for future extension.
+
+   General editorial cleanups include spelling, grammar, and consistency
+   in usage of terms.
+
+   The document has modified BNF for disposition notification options to
+   eliminate the need for dummy values where not otherwise needed.
