<a href="#rfc.section.1">1.</a> <a href="#introduction" id="introduction">Introduction</a>
</h1>
<p id="rfc.section.1.p.1">This document defines a new Content-Type header field parameter <a href="#RFC2045" class="xref">[RFC2045]</a> for &#8220;message/rfc822&#8221; and &#8220;message/global&#8221; <a href="#RFC6532" class="xref">[RFC6532]</a> media types with name &#8220;forwarded&#8221;. The parameter value is case- insensitive and can be either &#8220;yes&#8221; or &#8220;no&#8221;. Setting the value to &#8220;no&#8221; is meaningful when used within S&#8203;/&#8203;MIME or PGP/MIME signed or encrypted body parts (cf. <a href="#I-D.ietf-lamps-header-protection-requirements" class="xref">[I-D.ietf-lamps-header-protection-requirements]</a>. The value &#8220;yes&#8221; means that the message nested inside &#8220;message/rfc822&#8221; (or &#8220;message/global&#8221;) is a simple forwarded message. If the parameter is missing, the default assumption is the message has been forwarded.</p>

<a href="#rfc.section.1.1">1.1.</a> <a href="#use-cases" id="use-cases">Use Cases</a>
</h1>
<p id="rfc.section.1.1.p.1">Two use cases have been discovered so far:</p>
<p></p>
<ol>
<li>This parameter indicates whether a nested message is signed and/or encrypted (S&#8203;/&#8203;MIME or PGP/MIME), which tells the receiving side how to display the message to the user. Currently, many email clients display &#8220;weird artefacts&#8221; to users due to this missing information.</li>
<li>This parameter indicates to mailing lists which email messages are forwarded, and which are signed and/or encrypted (S&#8203;/&#8203;MIME or PGP/MIME), and how to handle these respective messages.</li>
</ol>

<p id="rfc.section.2.p.2">The Content-Type header field parameter &#8220;forwarded&#8221; may assume three values:</p>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li>&#8220;yes&#8221;: The email message contained in the MIME part is a forwarded message. A MUA (Mail User Agent) that is forwarding a message should add a Content-Type header field parameter &#8220;forwarded=yes&#8221;.</li>
<li>&#8220;no&#8221;: The email message contained in the MIME part is a encapsulated email message that has been signed and/or encrypted for header protection. MUAs SHOULD add a Content-Type header field parameter &#8220;forwarded=no&#8221; to indicate the message is not forwarded, but encapsulated for header protection (cf. <a href="#I-D.ietf-lamps-header-protection-requirements" class="xref">[I-D.ietf-lamps-header-protection-requirements]</a>).</li>
<li>absent: If the MUA has no information to determine whether an email message is forwarded or encapsulated, it omits the &#8220;forwarded&#8221; Content-Type header field parameter. A receiving MUAs default behavior is to assume the email message contained in the MIME part is a forwarded message.</li>

1. Introduction
This document defines a new Content-Type header field parameter
[RFC2045] for "message/rfc822" and "message/global" [RFC6532] media
types with name "forwarded". The parameter value is case-
insensitive and can be either "yes" or "no". Setting the value to
"no" is meaningful when used within S/MIME or PGP/MIME signed or
encrypted body parts (cf.
[I-D.ietf-lamps-header-protection-requirements]. The value "yes"
means that the message nested inside "message/rfc822" (or "message/
global") is a simple forwarded message. If the parameter is missing,
the default assumption is the message has been forwarded.
1.1. Use Cases
Two use cases have been discovered so far:
1. This parameter indicates whether a nested message is signed and/
or encrypted (S/MIME or PGP/MIME), which tells the receiving side
how to display the message to the user. Currently, many email
clients display "weird artefacts" to users due to this missing
information.
2. This parameter indicates to mailing lists which email messages
are forwarded, and which are signed and/or encrypted (S/MIME or
PGP/MIME), and how to handle these respective messages.

Internet-Draft Content-Type HF Parameter 'forwarded' November 2019
1.2. Implementations
At this time, there are two known email systems which use this
Content-Type header field parameter:
1. Isode with S/MIME [RFC8551]
2. pEp with PGP/MIME [I-D.birk-pep]
1.3. Requirements Language
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 [RFC2119].
1.4. Terms
The following terms are defined for the scope of this document:
o Header Field (HF): cf. [RFC5322]
o Header Section (HS): cf. [RFC5322]
2. Specification
This section defines the new "forwarded" Content-Type header field
parameter.
The Content-Type header field parameter "forwarded" may assume three
values:
o "yes": The email message contained in the MIME part is a forwarded
message. A MUA (Mail User Agent) that is forwarding a message
should add a Content-Type header field parameter "forwarded=yes".
o "no": The email message contained in the MIME part is a
encapsulated email message that has been signed and/or encrypted
for header protection. MUAs SHOULD add a Content-Type header
field parameter "forwarded=no" to indicate the message is not
forwarded, but encapsulated for header protection (cf.
[I-D.ietf-lamps-header-protection-requirements]).
o absent: If the MUA has no information to determine whether an
email message is forwarded or encapsulated, it omits the
"forwarded" Content-Type header field parameter. A receiving MUAs
default behavior is to assume the email message contained in the
MIME part is a forwarded message.

3. Example
The following example shows the usage of the Content-Type header
field parameter "forwarded" for an email message that is not
forwarded, but encapsulated in another email message.

4. Security Considerations
This document does not define a new protocol, and thus does not
create new security concerns in and of itself.
5. Privacy Considerations
This document does not introduce any new issues regarding Privacy.
6. IANA Considerations
This document requests IANA to register the Content-Type header field
parameter [RFC2045] with name "forwarded" for "message/rfc822" and
"message/global" media types as specified in Section 2 of this
document.
7. Acknowledgments
The authors would like to thank the following people who have
provided helpful comments and suggestions for this document: David
Wilson, Kelly Bristol, Krista Bennett, Robert Williams, Steve Kille,
and Wei Chuang.
David Wilson came up with the idea of defining a new Content-Type
header field parameter to distinguish forwarded messages from inner
header field protection constructs.

<t>The Content-Type header field parameter “forwarded” may assume three
values:</t>
<t><list style="symbols">
<t>“yes”: The email message contained in the MIME part is a forwarded
message. A MUA (Mail User Agent) that is forwarding a message should
add a Content-Type header field parameter “forwarded=yes”.</t>
<t>“no”: The email message contained in the MIME part is a encapsulated
email message that has been signed and/or encrypted for header
protection. MUAs SHOULD add a Content-Type header field parameter
“forwarded=no” to indicate the message is not forwarded, but
encapsulated for header protection
(cf. <xref target="I-D.ietf-lamps-header-protection-requirements"/>).</t>
<t>absent: If the MUA has no information to determine whether an email
message is forwarded or encapsulated, it omits the “forwarded”
Content-Type header field parameter. A receiving MUAs default
behavior is to assume the email message contained in the MIME part
is a forwarded message.</t>

<abstract><t>Internet mail was originally limited to 7-bit ASCII. MIME added support for the use of 8-bit character sets in body parts, and also defined an encoded-word construct so other character sets could be used in certain header field values. However, full internationalization of electronic mail requires additional enhancements to allow the use of Unicode, including characters outside the ASCII repertoire, in mail addresses as well as direct use of Unicode in header fields like &quot;From:&quot;, &quot;To:&quot;, and &quot;Subject:&quot;, without requiring the use of complex encoded-word constructs. This document specifies an enhancement to the Internet Message Format and to MIME that allows use of Unicode in mail addresses and most header field content.</t><t>This specification updates Section 6.4 of RFC 2045 to eliminate the restriction prohibiting the use of non-identity content-transfer- encodings on subtypes of &quot;message/&quot;.

<abstract><t>The pretty Easy privacy (pEp) model and protocols describe a set of conventions for the automation of operations traditionally seen as barriers to the use and deployment of secure, privacy-preserving end- to-end interpersonal messaging. These include, but are not limited to, key management, key discovery, and private key handling (including peer-to-peer synchronization of private keys and other user data across devices). Human Rights-enabling principles like Data Minimization, End-to-End and Interoperability are explicit design goals. For the goal of usable privacy, pEp introduces means to verify communication between peers and proposes a trust-rating system to denote secure types of communications and signal the privacy level available on a per-user and per-message level. Significantly, the pEp protocols build on already available security formats and message transports (e.g., PGP/MIME with email), and are written with the intent to be interoperable with already widely- deployed systems in order to ease adoption and implementation. This document outlines the general design choices and principles of pEp.</t></abstract>
