SIP also has one major advantage than email does: we've not *yet* got the same penetration that SMTP did when it started really suffering.

It's difficult to do *that* much: a lot of the counter-measures need support from the endpoint vendors for various features. A look at the quality (or even existence) of mutual TLS and related things in almost all UAs speaks loads on their interest in such matters! > But anyway, that's why I want a SIP Identity mechanism that actually works, fwiw. i'll give 10 pounds (of the Great British variety) and a bottle of sheppy's finest Somerset cider to whoever comes up with such a thing. ~ Theo _______________________________________________ Sip mailing list https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/sip This list is for NEW development of the core SIP Protocol Use [email protected] for questions on current sip Use [email protected] for new developments on the application of sip
