We can complain about people treating SPF Fail as definitive, but DMARC perpetuates the very same myth, which is: “If Sender Authentication test X produces FAIL, then the message is malicious and should be blocked.” It does not matter whether "X" is SPF Fail, DKIM Fail, ADSP Fail, DMARC Fail, or

That would probably be a question better placed on the SPFbis list, and (IETF veterans, keep me honest) it probably wouldn't be able to be addressed fully unless SPFter becomes a thing at some point. Outside of unnecessary/unexpected uses of it (due to reasons outlined previously in the thread

You’re not hearing me— this is something that comes up frequently for organizations working to implement DMARC. Others have confirmed on list. This is not an academic concern, it’s an operational one as elevated by the charter. Your other examples you cited do not come up in practice as issues for

The same thing can be said for every step of email processing that comes before DMARC. If I reject your mail due to your IP being on a block list, you also don't get DMARC feedback about it. It was long enough ago that I don't remember if it was RFC 7489 or early in this working group, but we
