If such a feature would be implemented, it will result in havy coding.

>I want to outright block any message from @*.docusign.net that isn't

whitelisted email address, from an IP that's in the SPF record, and with a

You want not only to make the test domain based strict, you want to ignore 
flags like 'whitelisted' - that's ok - but if I would start to allow any 
flag exceptions, other users may want to have other or more flag 
exception.

- noprocessing
- whitelisted
- spamlover
- domain based scoring values
- SMIME/PGP signed
.....

Yes, a great feature - but who would need it?

The best way would be to create a level 1 plugin for this purpose. There 
you can check the dkim result, flags, ip's ... what ever you want - and 
based on your logic, you can block or pass the mail.

But knowing (and thinking like) assp, will open other ways (solution 
workarounds) - for example.

we assume the DKIM check is set to scoring - and the scoring value is 20 
points below the penalty limit.

If a DKIM signature is invalid - assp scores.
If the domain has ever sent a mail with a valid DKIM signature before (a 
DKIMCache entry is found), assp scores for DKIM if a mail  without a DKIM 
signature from this domain is received.

Now, if there was not added any other score (the mail is 100% ok, except 
DKIM) the mail will pass because the penalty limit is not reached. But you 
want to block the mail if the sender matches @*.docusign.net

sender??? ... matches???... - assp has weighted regular expressions - 
like: bombSenderRe - where you can add or remove scoring points
if you set there
\@.+\.docusign\.net=>20

all mails from those domains will get a penalty of 20 points, which is 
harmless if there is everything else ok with the mail
if dkim fails, the penalty limit will be reached and the mail will be 
blocked
this can be finetuned using :>NWLI

You are also able to implement code in to the regex (for example to check 
for the DKIM result). This is much less complicated than writing a plugin.
\@.+\.docusign\.net(?{&CorrectASSPcfg::myWantedDKIMCheck($fh)})=>60
"score with 60 if the sender matches and the sub 
CorrectASSPcfg::myWantedDKIMCheck returned 1"

Both examples should only show, that there are more ways to get wanted 
results in assp. If someone solved a similar problem using another way, it 
would be nice to hear, how this was done.

All of your points are clear, and the explanation is greatly appreciated.  
 I now understand why it may be unwise to generally honor reject DMARC 
policy if we've overridden spf/dkim policy once we start manipulating 
results with ASSP.  That makes sense.

I still feel like a blockStrictDKIMRe type of new feature, where a failed 
OR missing dkim signature where the message matches the regex would be 
strictly blocked (just like we can do with blockstrictSPFRe for spf 
failures) would be helpful.   

For example (hopefully this is more illustrative of the desire), I want to 
outright block any message from @*.docusign.net that isn't signed or that 
has an invalid signature.  I don't care if it's from a whitelisted email 
address, from an IP that's in the SPF record, and with a message body that 
is 100% great.  If there's no DKIM signature or an invalid one for a 
message that matches the regex, reject the message (just like their DMARC 
policy says to do).  

Is there another way with current ASSP features to accomplish this only if 
a message matches this proposed regex?

NO! 

Contrary to SPF, a DKIM signature has only two options : OK and FAIL - 
Based on the signature it self or based on a trusted forwarders 
authentication result (ARC).
A DKIM signature has to be valid every time for any of the above reasons. 

> I score failed spf and score failed dkim, so DoDMARC is only scoring 
even though p=reject. 

What else makes sense? 
If SPF is scored and DKIM is scored and DMARC is score - AND the resulting 
score does'nt block the mail at the pealtybox, your settings are wrong! 


>If DMARC says p=reject, why shouldn't assp outright honor that, 
regardless of if we have spf / dkim failures set to only score? 

SPF has too many options to change/override the original result in assp 
(more or less strict, overwrite, skip ....), some these options also 
exists for DKIM. 
If we ignore/change/override ....  sender policies for SPF and DKIM, it is 
not wise to honor the reject DMARC policy strictly.

rejects 



The ability to block failed SPF, instead of just scoring them, for 
delect regex matches has been a terrific feature of ASSP for a long time.  
  (Block SPF Processing Regex* (blockstrictSPFRe) )   Would you please 
consider adding a feature to do the same for a failed DKIM signature?  
Outright blocking of a matching message that fails DKIM, regardless of the 
domain's DMARC settings.   -- maybe that's not necessary if DoDMARC will 
honor =reject, see more below. 

Reasoning: 
I already score failed DKIM signatures, but I can't set that score too 
high because so many organizations still send messages through 3rd parties 
with invalid DKIM signatures.  It really is incredible how many I see.  
But for frequently abused sender addresses (docusign for example), who are 
often spoofed but send otherwise unspammy content, I want to outright 
block if the DKIM signature fails.  blockStrictSPFRe usually works because 
these bad DKIM sigs are on mails that also violate SPF rules, still though 
it would be helpful if I could also just say "if a specific regex is 
matched on an email with an invalid DKIM, reject the message" 

RELATED: DMARC p=reject should always reject if failed 
Docusign.net has a dmarc rule of p=reject.  I want to honor that.  The 
last scam that came in from them failed SPF and failed DKIM validation, 
but the message was from a whitelisted address..  DoDMARC says that the 
blocking will be the "most less aggressive" (least aggressive) and the 
published DMARC record.  I score failed spf and score failed dkim, so 
DoDMARC is only scoring even though p=reject. 

Enable DMARC Check (DoDMARC) 
If enabled and ValidateSPF and DoDKIM are enabled and the sending domain 
has published a DMARC-record/policy, assp will act on the mail according 
to the senders DMARC-policy using the results of the SPF and DKIM check 
and validating the SPF/DKIM address/domain Identifier Alignment rules 
(RFC7489 section 3). It is safe to leave this feature ON, it will not 
produce false positives! The blocking mode (block, monitor, score, 
testmode) is adapted from the most less aggressive setting of ValidateSPF 
and DoDKIM - and the published DMARC record 
([p][sp]=[reject][quarantine]). Scoring is done using dmarcValencePB. 
      
If DMARC says p=reject, why shouldn't assp outright honor that, regardless 
of if we have spf / dkim failures set to only score? 

Thanks 
Ken
