Please review what the adkim and aspf tags do. In the strict mode the domain must be an exact match. In the relaxed mode it must either be an exact match or match the parent domain. In no case will "sister" subdomains produce a pass. Michael Hammer ___ dmarc mailing list dmarc@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dmarc
Re: [dmarc-ietf] Minutes from IETF 112
Don't the alignment rules allow any DKIM signature for the organization to validate any FROM address for the organization -- up, down, or sideways? To use the sideways example, this means that an RFC 5322.From address of " u...@security.example.edu" can be validated for DMARC: - by SPF PASS on an RFC5321.MailFrom address of "u...@humanities.example.edu", or - by a verified DKIM signature issued by d=Humanities.Example.Edu using a public key published in the Humanities sub-tree. That, at least, is my understanding.

That would work fine. An sp=reject in both security.example.edu and its org domain would also be a good idea.

To accomplish this, security.example.edu can today: - Publish an SPF record listing only hosts under its direct control, a record which ends with "-all" - Ensure that only hosts under its control can DKIM sign messages using " security.example.edu" as the signing domain, by making sure that its private DKIM signing key is only deployed to hosts under its control - Publish a DMARC policy record that includes the following three tags and values: - p=reject - adkim=s - aspf=s -- *Todd Herr * | Technical Director, Standards and Ecosystem *e:* todd.h...@valimail.com *m:* 703.220.4153 This email and all data transmitted with it contains confidential and/or proprietary information intended solely for the use of individual(s) authorized to receive it.

Re: [dmarc-ietf] Minutes from IETF 112
Consensus on Tree Walk? A comment in the minutes suggested that consensus was forming around Tree Walk for Policy Discovery. I do not have that impression. Instead, the "strongly favor" and "strongly oppose" voices seem about equal, with the balance determined by those who, like myself, are tepidly in favor. Does Tree Walk eliminate the PSL? I am concerned that support for Tree Walk is driven by antipathy to the PSL, rather than for the functional capabilities that Tree Walk provides. The PSL is needed for alignment, which is essential to the determination of the PASS or FAIL result. Eliminating use of the PSL for policy discovery is trivial unless it is also replaced for alignment.We have discussed three options for alignment: · The publicsuffix.org list which has conspicuous limitations. · Downward-only alignment, which has been rejected as incompatible with current practice. · DNS flags, a topic which was apparently not pursued during the meeting. Do Complex Organizations want policy flexibility? Granular DMARC policies can be achieved under DMARCv1 by using many policy records with p=. Tree walk simplifies that process by allowing intermediate subtrees to be configured using sp= policies.We need input from complex organizations to indicate whether this capability is something that they would value and use. Do we want to provide a sub-tree alignment option? Suppose that “security.example.edu” does not want any other part of “ example.edu” to be sending emails on their behalf, so they want to limit alignment to their sub-tree only. This approach becomes feasible if (a) we use tree walk and (b) we implement a clause which indicates “top of tree for alignment purposes”.I suspect that this would have some appeal to parts of some universities and other complex organizations, but again we would need those organizations to affirm that it would be useful.
