strongly disagree. Filtering early is more likely to pickup signature breakage and protect the down stream recipient. Its more likely to reject back to the sender if they configured stuff wrong. Advice could be split between forwarders that break signature and those that done. Keep in mind the dkim goal of is message integrity not reputation (despite its usefulness here). > All these arguments about what to do with > DKIM and ADSP and mailing lists are based on pure speculation. Rejecting mail based on signature failure combined with dkim=all/discard is working quite well on the mail lists I manage. I don't do this on the final recipient domain though. > I know what my lists do (just out of curiosity, how many other people > in this argument host active lists? me - lists.cacert.org > ) and I know what works for me, but > there are a lot of other opinions and we won't know what works until > we have some actual experience. Though involvement with Sympa and Mailman devs, who for the most part are sick of request saying change this so I can fillter spam/forgeries, still want to provide unsubscribe links and bottoms of email and generally meet the user requested features. Responses based on shared experience has been: - Sympa Dev - Serge Aumont - DKIMfriendly switch http://mipassoc.org/pipermail/dkim- dev/attachments/20090930/e767bd81/attachment.html http://www.sympa.org/manual/dkim#summary_of_parameters - Mailman Dev - Barry Warsaw - mta problem http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-developers/2009-October/020818.html - Mailman Dev -Stephen Turnbull - develop List Domain Signing Practices http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-developers/2009-October/020814.html - Infrastructure Manger - Ian Eiloart - reject when signature breaks and ADSP says all/discardable http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-developers/2009-October/020805.html There's plenty of experience. Just need to look a bit beyond this list. _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html
