Re: [mailop] (Mis)use of DKIM's length tag and it's impact on DMARC and BIMI

2024-05-17 Thread Alex Liu via mailop
I dont know this is that new with regard to DMARC. missing citation:
https://www.usenix.org/system/files/sec20-chen-jianjun.pdf

It is, however, the first time someone tries to combine with BIMI.

Every a few months we see a paper / blogpost that passes SPF / DKIM /
DMARC. So maybe requiring both SPF and DKIM for BIMI would be a good idea.

[mailop] When Will Outlook Rollout SRS for All of Their Email Servers? (For the sake of bimi)

2023-06-05 Thread Alex Liu via mailop
Looks like the bad guys are exploiting Outlook's forwarding feature to
bypass BIMI.

We reported this issue in April:

Re: [mailop] Microsoft Office365 not rejecting emails when instructed so by SPF recored?

2023-05-23 Thread Alex Liu via mailop
Indeed, an email will only be rejected if it has DMARC setup as reject.

I can attest that personal email services such as Outlook / MSN do reject
email properly (in case of DMARC fail and the FROM domain has a reject
policy).

appreciate it.

[mailop] Student trying to attend M3AAWG

2023-02-17 Thread Alex Liu via mailop
Hi Everyone,

My name is Alex and I’m a student at UCSD. I recently found out about M3AAWG.
It’s agenda is very really related to what I’ve been doing (my research:
https://alexliu0809.github.io/publications/#/). However, it seems like
registration is not open to students who are not part of a member company.
Is there still a way to register for it (e.g., through an invitation)? Any
help would be appreciated. Thanks!
