Ignoring the swipe at current AOL and Yahoo policies, which are not the sole determinants of DMARC usefulness, corporate use of email comes under a lot of constraints that don't apply when considering free mailbox users. There are a lot of B2B mailstreams that represent very attractive targets for attack - selectively or at scale. Similar to the case for B2B use of enforced TLS, they are places where the use of DMARC could be beneficial. > Nothing personal, but like 99.9% of the people in the world, I care > nothing about your brand. Which has no bearing on whether or not inbound DMARC filtering should be considered for corporate infrastructure. Like 99.9% of the people in the world, you and I would never see the use of DMARC in these B2B cases. But if it can help put any dent whatsoever in the endless stream of corporate data breaches, for example, I think it's a net benefit for consumers. --S. _______________________________________________ dmarc-discuss mailing list dmarc-discuss@dmarc.org http://www.dmarc.org/mailman/listinfo/dmarc-discuss NOTE: Participating in this list means you agree to the DMARC Note Well terms (http://www.dmarc.org/note_well.html)
