I actually think it makes sense as it's the only real proof that you
wrote the body of your email, becuase in no way DKIM or SPF can
guarantee the integrity of what you wrote in your MUA.

I should have not signed an email sent to a mailing list knowing that it 
would mess things since the list modifies headers and content. It just 
makes no sense.

Thanks Sandro for caring about this.

I understand that some people get annoyed if the prefix is removed (not me
personally). That made me compare with google groups:
I am in a google groups mailing list, and the emails "pass" for SPF and
DKIM. This group has a "prefix" added by the mailing list automatically.
What are they doing differently that we cannot?

About the GPG signature, I do not know. Nobody in my google group uses it.
Maybe Jorge Sanz has some experience.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Email filtering (was: Change in mailing list configuration)

[Jeroen Ticheler via Discuss]

Hi Sandro,



First of all, thanks for taking such great care, restoring the default list 
behaviour and taking time to discuss with a wider audience! 


Second, my personal experience with filtering based on header content is 
completely new. What you describe makes sense, but at the same time it may not 
be for everyone. And my email client does not provide me with such advanced 
filtering capabilities. Maybe that is because I use stupid mail clients (I use 
more than one to be honest), at the same time I'm convinced I'll not be the 
only one. If indeed I'm not alone here, a change to the mailing-list may make 
perfect sense (in fact emails from lists.osgeo.org  don't comply with all 
security checks and cause warnings for me), but filtering on headers may be a 
bridge to far!?



Cheers,

Jeroen

I believe MUA filters can also be used to ADD a prefix of your choice ?
At least I do know my MUA (Mutt) allows me to _strip_ the prefix (as
I'm already organizing emails in folders so I don't want it).

Thanks folks, and thanks to Sandro and system admin team for managing all
this stuff.

I know from my own experience (website reboot) that by the time a change is
shared with disc...@osgoe.org list that the topic is already well underway;
and it is hard to slow down and introduce the change to the wider community.

When working on a lot of tickets it is difficult to predict which ones will
be noticed, let alone desire wider discussion.

suggestion: Perhaps the sysadmin committee could a send an email of planned
infrastructure changes each month. Then the community could notice any
items of interest for discussion. We would have to keep system admin
committee communication channels in mind and comment via the trac tickets.

aside: I was surprised that my own email filters navigated the change which
was set to filter [osgeo-discuss] ... but then I noticed I have a catch-all
filtering any osgeo lists server email to this folder.

Ok, if everything worked as I expected, the change is now reverted.
Please please please help us shape recomendations for mailing list
configuration. Some discussion has been conducted on SAC mailing list,
some on other channels, and outcomes have been logged in Trac here:

  Trac ticket: https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/3011

Worth starting another thread to discuss other options ?

Does this list need new owners or are Frank and Arnulf still active ?

Why adding a prefix breaks DKIM signature (was: Change in mailing list configuration)

DKIM is a standard by which the mail server applies a cryptographic signature
to some elements of an email, to ensure it is not tampered with. 

Your mail (the one I'm reply to) contained the following signature:

  DKIM-Signature:
[..]
d=protonmail.ch;
h=Date:To:From:Subject:Message-ID:In-Reply-To:References:

That means that your mail server (protonmail.ch) applied a digital
ignature on the following email headers:

  - Date
  - To
  - From
  - Subject
  - Message-Id
  - In-Reply-To
  - References

The mail servers involved in getting the mail to me checked your
server signature and added an header with the outcome of the
verification:

  Authentication-Results:
hst.kbt.io; dkim=pass (2048-bit key; secure)

  Authentication-Results:
spool.mail.gandi.net;
dkim=pass

So both "spoo.mail.gandi.net" and "hst.kbt.io" where happy with your
signature. If Mailman injected a prefix in the "Subject" header
(which is among the ones signed by protonmail.ch) the servers of
recipients would detect the mail was modified and thus will consider
it suspicious.

Re: Change in mailing list configuration

Hi Sandro and others,
My suggestion would be to re-instate the old configuration and first propose 
and discuss a possible update. Such discussion and eventual update should be 
announced first before it is applied. The Discuss mailing list, as other lists, 
has always worked well for me too. The header [OSGeo-Discuss] is used by many 
of us to filter email and keep things manageable. That can't just be modified 
on an important list as Discuss without broader consent IMHO.

My 2 cents. Cheers,

Please re-add the [OSGeo-Discuss] prefix to the subject, you are messing

It is surprising, but this is the first email from "discuss" that Gmail is

I think this is because with the new configuration you're receiving the email
with MY email address rather than the OSGeo service email address as the sender,
so your mail server is evaluating MY reputation rather than the OSGeo one.

As far as I understood it, the mailing list will continue to work as is 
in the future? And discourse is only a mirror or an additional interface 
for those who prefer to communicate via this app?


I will not use the discourse app, if this mailing list stops its 
service, I am out of the conversation as well.


Thanks and best regards
Christian

I’ll be decommissioning this email address in the near future.  If you’d like

Kind regards,

I was hoping that this proposal would be objected by more active community members, but 
as a mere lurker it is not worth it for me to engage in lengthy discussions, if the 
people in charge decide to break decodes-long established UX conventions on short notice 
for the sake of "spam protection". As far as I see it these developments are 
mainly driven by corporations who pursue the political goal of destroying independent 
email infrastructure, and I would have hoped the OS community to resist those 
developments instead of happily nodding along.

Best, Florian

I'm unsubscribing in protest of those changes.

I was hoping that this proposal would be objected by more active 
community members, but as a mere lurker it is not worth it for me to 
engage in lengthy discussions, if the people in charge decide to break 
decodes-long established UX conventions on short notice for the sake of 
"spam protection". As far as I see it these developments are mainly 
driven by corporations who pursue the political goal of destroying 
independent email infrastructure, and I would have hoped the OS 
community to resist those developments instead of happily nodding along.

Hi Sandro

It is surprising, but this is the first email from "discuss" that Gmail is
suggesting it could be spam. It says

"Be careful with this message
The sender hasn't authenticated this message, so Gmail can't verify that it
actually came from them."
