Gerben,

Note that the HELO string is only ever processed for DMARC if MAIL FROM is <> and, even then, not all implementations process it at all (it's dependent upon the behaviour of the underlying SPF implementation).

The <spf><domain> tag is telling you that the return path is {something}@mail.mydomain.tld [1]

<header_from>dumbledore.mydomain.tld</header_from> tells you that the From: header contains {something}@dumbledore.mydomain.tld, not the HELO string or MAIL FROM domain.

Generally this means that the program that generated the message used this domain and your MTA simply passed it through.

1: or the return path is <> and the HELO string is mail.mydomain.tld, and Yahoo!'s SPF implementation reports that to DMARC

I’m setting up DMARC for my mail server. I tried sending a mail to an account on the icloud.com <http://icloud.com> domain (which reports DMARC) and there I see:

But I also got an aggregate report from Yahoo that suggests something is wrong:

</feedback>

This seems to suggest that Yahoo received an email from my MTA at IP address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (which is the correct IP of mail.mydomain.tld) but the header was dumbledore.mydomain.tld. Is that correct? That is weird, because my mail server is set to use 'helo mail.mydomain.tld'. So, apparently, it seems some program on my server is trying to send mail to a yahoo MTA bypassing my mail server, correct? If so, it is an unexpected catch. But I need to know if it is correct.

Thanks in advance

Gerben
