diaspora: - Diaspora network delivery using webfinger address

Foreign protocol addresses which have not been defined in this specification
or future revisions of this specification and which are unknown to the
recipient delivery process MAY be ignored.
In cases where an address may contain either a webfinger or LRDD address, the
webfinger address SHOULD be used preferentially.
Z-Bcc:
******
The Z-Bcc element may contain one or more addresses which are hidden from end
user presentation. A zot receiving system MUST NOT store or allow for
the display of the Bcc information. Implementations which require extreme
privacy SHOULD send individual posts to each of the Bcc: recipients containing
only a single address. They MAY send all Bcc: posts using bulk delivery,
however this may have privacy implications as there is no guarantee a
receiving system will not log, store, or otherwise reveal the contents of the
Bcc recipient list.
Z-To: addresses MAY be shown to an end user.
