Well, I think that would depend on the use case, would it not?. I've got
one server and Google Apps, everything signs with DKIM, and SPF is
configured correctly. I don't really have any edge cases to look out for --
no other outsource service providers in the mix. The rare (for me) failed
message forensic reports provide feedback about other peoples' broken
mailing lists (and maybe someday examples of forgery, if somebody forges my
domain). In that scenario, I'm getting a daily "everything is OK" aggregate
report from Google and a few others that is of low value to me. I could
either set a filter to delete those reports, or I modify my DMARC record to
stop requesting them. Either way, this is reversible in the future.

For an ISP or corporate entity, I would be more inclined to agree with you.
Somebody in another department could set up with some other service
provider that handles some form of email messaging without enabling proper
authentication and you'd want to be able to catch that, and summary
(aggregate) information from the big guys would help immensely.

So I do get your point, but it doesn't see to fit my use case.

Cheers,
Al Iverson
