I’ve forwarded copies of 2 of the phishing posts privately to appropriate engineers. It’s pretty clear from reviewing them how they bypassed DMARC; in one case the forged FROM address simply left off the aol.com domain, and just had the AOL Screen Name (that the recipients would recognize) in

Doesn’t this come back to the whitelist idea? For the green bar SSL certs (Extended Validation), the certs have a bunch of information encoded in it, and the browsers have a list of CA’s that they trust. AFAIK, the only way to do that for email is through DKIM but you wouldn’t highlight all

Actually there is a finite number of look alike domains to any domain that are similar enough to fool someone. Well, technically, that's true since the total number of possible domains is finite, it's 2^2040. But the claim that you can enumerate all of the misleading domains, much less get

Presumably, if VBR is already an RFC, why couldn't DMARC integrate with it? As a large receiver I would never trust a set supplied by the sender, but if I had a handful of locally defined vouching services, then I could use that to bypass a DMARC enforcement in the event that the message passes

Oof, kinda -- I was thinking of 4xx for transient resolver issues or non registered domain names, while writing the words invalid RHS which _would_ require a 5xx to toss out the garbage. Read what I'm thinking, not what I'm writing! On Thu, Jun 5, 2014 at 7:03 PM, Murray S. Kucherawy
