Bug#1058808: exim4: Consider including Authenticated Received Chain (ARC) support in Debian packages

Show all headers | View raw

Package: exim4
Version: 4.96-15+deb12u3
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

  Given Google's recommendation of using ARC[1] when forwarding emails,
could activation of `EXPERIMENTAL_ARC` support in the Debian packages be
considered ?

  The email server I run has a number of aliases and user-mediated
(procmail etc) forwarding of email to GMail accounts.  Obviously this
breaks DMARC/SPF/DKIM checks if no attempt at mitigation is made.

  I could find no mention of `EXPERIMENTAL_ARC` within the `debian/`
directory of sid 4.97-2 exim4 sources.
