Why does Google send me the exact same DMARC report 5 times? Like, same Message-ID. Can they fuck off?
@siguza last year they were sending it twice, so I learned I had to record the IDs when writing the parser script. Looks like since july some were 3 times, 5 times since august (2024). 8 since october, but in this june we got to 17, 21 in july, 30 in august, a week ago one ID was repeated 32 times. They are identical messages, Date included, but they're just sent out at different times (luckily several minutes apart so far, so my parser script don't need to be too atomic yet).
@blanxd sigh, I guess I'll do that one day... lowkey wanna make the script reject the duplicates though.
@siguza yeah same, but I just resorted to a dir structure something like var/rua/<reporter.com>-<subject.com>/, in there I just touch a file named that ID, the script simply checks if the ID file is there and its mtime for logging and discards duplicate reports. Yeah truly home made thing, and there are now a bunch of 0B files there, should prolly do garbage collection, but but who's doing garbage collection, ever :)
