Title: RE: RefToMessageId in DR & Ack

You are probably right. However, that's not the main reason for doing this. I think the main reason is for when the delivery receipt or acknowledgement is digitally signed. By putting the RefToMessageId in a separate element you can directly bind all the data in the Delivery Receipt/Acknowledgement together.

Subject: RefToMessageId in DR & Ack

Since a DeliveryReceipt element or an Acknowledgement element can be on any

message, do they need their own RefToMessageId elements since the RefToMessageId

in the MessageHeader might be in use by something else?

I am tempted to say that they would never be on a message in which the

RefToMessageId would be different, yet is it really never?
