* The upstream openarc project has not had a commit to master branch since Sept 21, 2018. (there is a develop branch last Oct 16, 2020) * There are many unresolved issues in it's issue tracker * It seems this implementation was mainly just experimental * Debian updates are just packaging or policy related * popcon shows only 20 installs It's only in experimental currently, so maybe that's ok that it stay there if someone cares enough, but otherwise I think it could be removed from Debian. Possible alternatives: * fastmail's implementation https://github.com/fastmail/authentication_milter RFP #1036235 * opendkim gained some ARC support in 1.4.0 (2021-01-28) * rspamd has an ARC module, config is here https://github.com/rspamd/rspamd/blob/master/conf/modules.d/arc.conf Thanks,
Hi Matt, From the page you referenced for "authentication_milter", it says that the milter will /verify/; from that, I conclude it won't *sign* the ARC. As far as the popcon count: as you say, it's only in "experimental", so having a popcon count of 20 even seems *high*. Regards, Erik.

I would like to also ask that Debian changes upstream for package OpenARC to the forked version by flowerysong. That version is actively maintained, it has been brought up to date, it has been improved, and appears to be backed by someone who did this for $dayjob. I have been building this project myself for my mail server, and would be very pleased if that were no longer needed. I tried to email the maintainer of the Debian OpenARC package, but his email domain does not seem to exist anymore. Kind regards, Edmund Lodewijks
There is some work going on in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1126523 and based on https://salsa.debian.org/mjeanson/openarc I have built the package for trixie and available from https://people.debian.org/~praveen/openarc/pool/main/o/openarc/
