There are soooooo many bugs already open. I looked around BZ some
last week and it seems like there is no real recent movement on
anything. I would like to create a BZ to get a DMARC plugin started
but on the users mailing list a few weeks back it didn't seem to get
any traction or enough interest. It seems like so many people are
using SA in many different ways that the momentum to move things
forward is fragmented. The great thing about SA is that it's very
flexible but that is also a negative thing too.
I would appreciate it if you would still open a bug. I am trying to
make that a central place for ideas.
I commented on your existing bug just now.
Also, you might try asking someone to write something or post a draft
patch, etc. A little bit of movement can become a snowball.
Maybe there are some out there that took some of my techniques and are
trying them out but it seems that everyone is kinda set in their ways.
Mail filtering is changing with SPF, DKIM, DMARC, ARC, etc. RBLs are
still very important but SA currently doesn't use enough of them by
default. I understand they have to meet some requirements before they
can be included in SA by default which is why I am pushing this in BZ.
Remember that at least my POV is that SA is a framework so the goal for
me is to support RBLs in general. But I'm very happy to support you in
this endeavor.
Many don't understand how RBLs work so it would be helpful if we could
include some more common RBLs in the default rules and maybe set the
default score to zero and document somewhere how to enable them by
setting up a non-zero score in their local.cf.
