Yes, that is the plan.  Please go back and look at the discussion when we talked about the tree walk in the first place.

I don't remember that we ever convene that subdomains cannot override the org domain record.

The "org domain record" is now whatever you find in the tree walk.  There is nothing to override.


No, the concept of Organizational Domain is foundational to DMARC. We cannot overthrow it to spare an extra lookup. When we talked about tree walk we knew that additional lookups might well have come out.

To specify that a.b.example.com and c.example.com are not aligned is wrong.

Subdomains do override their org domain policy, in some cases just to add an extra rua address. This has to still be possible, without disrupting the alignment.

Todd managed to specify the tree walk under the assumption that every PSD would fulfill our wish to discover a psd=y tag at the end of the walk. Since that won't happen, then perhaps the psd= tag is not enough to specify a working tree walk.

I propose role=, as it is more flexible than psd=. In the example, when b.example.com realize (from feedback) what damage their record causes, they can set role=sub in order to allow tree walkers to discover the real org domain. If Todd devises a better way, he's welcome.


The PSL is gone.


Long live the king.
