Abstract
Communicating and requesting specialized policy information. A message is sent by a client to a service which provides the services requested by the message or a specialized processor that evaluates messages.

If the message does not comply with a policy particular to the message, policy information is sent, where the policy information indicates the correct policy particular to the message. In one embodiment, if the message complies with a policy particular to the message, policy information is sent, where the policy information indicates that the message complies with a policy particular to the message.
