That sounds good! The `mail` keyword gave an idea - `emailauthentication`

As far as words go, you could just keep dkimpy, too, since ARC depends

Hahaha! In case we choose that, that can be our inside joke.

Narrowing it down, we have the options -
dkimpy, kimpy, adkimpy ( meaning augmented/arc - domain ;) ),
emailauthentication, and any others with keywords you specified.

I had read on the arc list that an OpenARC implementation was being
developed
by Murray Kucherawy.
