more likely the email has been "fixed up" by a transport layer after the
signature was calculated. Start by looking for patterns such as accented
characters in the Subject header field or the RFC5322 From header field
(where Unicode stand-alone accents have been amalgamated with the
character they affect as a single glyph) or for unusual sets of spaces
(where "invisible" Unicode values have been substituted)

better yet of course get hold of the original email before it was signed
and sent to you -- but spammers tend not to help you with that !

As you can see 85.75% of incoming email was already signed by DKIM,
and 86.5% of emails had SPF records that passed. So they both have
about same amount if usage coming in to our servers.



What are those 0.75%, some 30k SPF - DKIM messages?  Are there cases of DKIM 
random failure salvaged by SPF?




0.19%   7506none,pass
0.15%   5910pass,none



How do you order DKIM signatures?


Thanks for the data

2023-06-14 Thread Seth Blank
At M3AAWG a couple of years ago, a VLMB said that 60% of the DKIM errors
they saw were obvious human error in the publishing of keys.

This is why I’ve been pushing (through M3AAWG, and hopefully eventually via
the appropriate working groups here) the need to automate publishing of
DKIM keys. They’re public after all, and a human (and generally, multiple
humans) shouldn’t need to be in the critical path of getting a key from a
sending system UI and then getting it published properly in DNS.

My main point on this whole thread is there’s a lot of theory, but as
Tevo’s data shows, the reality of these deployments and their challenges is
far trickier.

I’m still working with Todd to bring our own data on SPF to the working
group.

This is staggering.  Can you characterize what the most common
malformations are?
