The standard and the document should reflect that it’s already making a massive difference and could do even more.

The IETF is a consensus-based organization. I suggest that if we're going to claim DMARC as-is has the consensus of the community, that community needs to be representative of the interests of the MLM developers and operators. Since we keep talking about "them", I don't think it is.

Expecting them to adapt (or perhaps "comply" is the better word) merely because we say so feels a lot like pushing on a string.


Some strings seem to be quite pushable. I'm not so much into string theory, but recall threads like this:

Is there really going to be language in the new standard saying general purpose domains must be p=none type of language? That’s quite a compromise if it’s the case. Like all of us I’m busy and tired so maybe didn’t read everything including nuance. I thought the gist of one bit was that “general purpose” domains must have a p=none. What is a general purpose domain? Like could the org domain of some organization be called general purpose?


A similar discussion was made at the times of ADSP. A good explanation of the intent is given in this post:
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ietf-dkim/EC8IQuaYwAZ4FeoKBsgICisRwSQ/

Note that Brett McDowell writes from paypal-inc.com, a domain created purposely to be general purpose.

We all know where that path leads.
