Zitat von Andreas Schulze <sca at andreasschulze.de>:

Hi,

there is still to much silence on opendmarc-dev :-(

I like to focus on  failure reports (forensic reports) again.
The current code can generete them but as opendmarc does not capture  
the body at all
there is only a limited information available.

To implement full body failure reporting opendmarc must capture the body.
That sounds very memory expensive. Capturing the body should only be done
it there is clearly a need for. That point it reached after _end of  
header_ in my opinion.

But the evaluation of the dmarc result is currently done in _end of  
message_, thats far later.

To enable full body failure reporting in opendmarc the decision about  
the dmarc result should be
evaluated in _end of header_ to
  - skip capturing the body if it's not needed.
  - capture only if dmarc != pass && ruf != NULL

Am I wrong with my thoughts?

If no:
As Murray is very busy, are there other programers out there beeing  
able to contribute code?

Thanks
Andreas
