The reason I want to change it is that a mail From: <faked@com> brings the tree 
walk process to conclude that .com is an organizational domain, which is wrong.

Since com. doesn't have a DMARC record, the case is already addressed.


Ah, ok.  Sorry, I didn't understand that it was a precondition.  The numbered 
steps look like the algorithm to determine the org domain, embedded into a 
guide to message authentication.

Does the change I emailed yesterday make that more clear?


Yeah, calling it a for loop limits its extent somewhat.  Its the previous 
paragraph which introduces some extra generality:

   To discover the Organizational Domain for a domain, perform the DNS
   Tree Walk described in Section 4.6 as needed for any of the domains
   in question.

Perhaps it could be omitted at this point, or reworded eliminating that /for a 
domain/.

I think we need to make clear that the RFC5322.From domain, the 
RFC5321.MailFrom domain, and the DKIM d= domain all have their own 
organizational domain.  I think we need that there to make that clear, so we 
can't just delete it.


The paragraph quoted above says none of those.


Do you have a suggested change that doesn't lose that distinction?


Perhaps:

    For each Tree Walk that retrieved valid DMARC records starting
    from the RFC5322.From domain, the SPF-validated RFC5321.MailFrom
    domain, or a DKIM-validated d= domain, select the
    Organizational Domain by looping from the longest to the shortest:

?
