I can hardly corroborate my analysis by looking at what I received. My DB of sending domains has: 96260 domain names, of which 55110 are organizational domains; 3887 have DMARC records, of which 3046 have policy 'none', 418 have policy 'reject', 271 have policy 'quarantine', 73 have both 'none' and 'reject', 45 have both 'none' and 'quarantine', 34 have both 'quarantine' and 'reject'. 393 of those DMARC domains are not organizational domains, yet 79 of them also specify sp=. There is some confusion about how to setup DMARC; some easy howto seems to be missing. On multiple policies, only 4 of the latter 34 have p=quarantine; sp=reject; the other 30 have p=reject; sp=quarantine. By comparison, the previous 73 + 45 have about the same ratio of p=hard/p=none; 45/28 for reject and 29/16 for quarantine, so some 63% of those have p=hard; sp=none. Can one infer from here the intent of the 30 p=reject; sp=quarantine? My feeling while looking at that data is that 'reject' is sometimes considered /better/ than 'quarantine', which I don't think is true. This confusion can originate from the sequential order implied by that passage of Section 6.6.4 that Steve quoted. I agree that that Section needs to be amended. In particular, the effect of pct=0 on From: rewriting should be mentioned.
