Sean WhalenandClaude Fable 5 a4ca3010cc Add [general] archive_directory to archive processed local files (#570)
Move successfully processed report files given as local path arguments
into <archive_directory>/<year>/<month>/<Aggregate|Failure|SMTP-TLS>/,
dated from the parsed report's own metadata (aggregate begin_date,
failure arrival_date_utc, SMTP TLS begin_date) rather than the
filename. Files that fail to parse as a report (ParserError) go to
<archive_directory>/Invalid/; other failures (e.g. transient I/O
errors) leave the file in place so a later run can retry it.

Existing destination files are never overwritten: each candidate name
is claimed atomically (O_CREAT | O_EXCL) and collisions get a numeric
suffix before the extension. Files already inside the archive
directory are excluded from processing (compared via realpath so
symlinked spellings still match), so the archive can safely live
inside an input directory, as the issue requests. mbox files and
mailbox modes are unaffected; mailbox modes keep [mailbox]
archive_folder.

A screenshot of DMARC summary charts in Kibana

parsedmarc is a Python module and CLI utility for parsing DMARC reports. When used with Elasticsearch and Kibana (or Splunk), it works as a self-hosted open-source alternative to commercial DMARC report processing services such as Agari Brand Protection, Dmarcian, OnDMARC, ProofPoint Email Fraud Defense, and Valimail.

Note

Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC) is an email authentication protocol.

Features

  • Parses aggregate/rua DMARC reports: the legacy draft and 1.0 schemas (RFC 7489) and the new RFC 9990 schema for the final DMARC standard (RFC 9989)
  • Parses failure/ruf DMARC reports (RFC 6591 and RFC 9991; formerly called forensic reports)
  • Parses reports from SMTP TLS Reporting (TLS-RPT, RFC 8460)
  • Can parse reports from an inbox over IMAP, Microsoft Graph, or Gmail API
  • Transparently handles gzip or zip compressed reports
  • Consistent data structures
  • Simple JSON and/or CSV output
  • Optionally email the results
  • Optionally send the results to Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, Splunk, or PostgreSQL, for use with premade dashboards
  • Optionally send the results to Apache Kafka, Amazon S3, Azure Log Analytics (Microsoft Sentinel), a Graylog (GELF) endpoint, a syslog server, or an HTTP webhook
