Hello, DMARC aggregate reports can and do cause endless loops, too:
A site publishes an email address for receiving aggregate DMARC reports. The rua-address bounces the messages (aggregate report) received there and the bounces does not validate the DMARC policy. So on the next reporting period a new aggregate report is sent, stating that the reply on the previous report failed DMARC validation.
Unlike endless email loops caused by message-specific failure reports, the endless email loops caused by aggregate reports are by design rate-limited: one email per reported domain and reporting period. A wait to reduce the possibility into getting in such loops is toT send the reports FROM:<>.
That said I propose recommending in DMARC, that both the message-specific reports and the aggregate reports are sent FROM:<> or NOTIFY=NEVER.
Shall I submit an erratum to RFC7489? Regards Дилян _______________________________________________ dmarc mailing list dmarc@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dmarc
