DNS query is already sent for each recipient when sending email. Asking for MX record... So I do not see problem here. But if this is problem, then we can just add option ENABLE/DISABLE mangling of address in profile settings. Where user could specify action for emails sent to his address. And we can choose default settings for this option when user register account. > It would also require making invasive changes to the Bugzilla codebase - > patches we would have to support going forward. Also that simple option? It could be just one query to database (or where are stored user options) and based on this generate email. But here I do not know. I have not seen bugzilla source code (I guess it is some PHP application?), so I just try to find out solution to this problem... But with PHP I could not help. > It also wouldn't help where Bugzilla emails go to mailing lists, which then > have subscribers which enforce DMARC. Mailing lists adding subject prefix or change some email headers. Therefore they are by DMARC definitions incompatible with DMARC. > Finally, it would make behaviour of Bugzilla inconsistent from person to > person, which is bound to result in other bugs being raised. Same argument can be used from another point of view: Users who enforce DMARC on their own address are already inconsistent with whole email infrastructure. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
