checkdmarc 5.9.0

on Python PyPI

Bug fixes:

• Remove zero-width characters from domain inputs (Close #157)
• Add a warning when the DMARC record p or sp value is none (Close #163)
• Evaluate DMARC when checking BIMI
• Do lot show a BIMI certificate warning when the l tag is set to ""
• Include warnings if a domain is using BIMI, but does not have an enforced DMARC policy

New features:

Parsed SPF record details are now provided even if it uses too many DNS lookups

Having all of the details of a SPF record that is over the DNS lookup limit can help administrators see what portions of the SPF record are using the most lookups. The parsed record data can be found in the parsed key. In the event that a domain is over the lookup limit, valid will still be set to false and a helpful message describing the problem can be found in the error key. (Close #129)

API changes:

• Require keyword arguments to be passed as keyword=value pairs instead of positional arguments
• Add the option ignore_too_many_lookups to checkdmarc.spf.parse_spf_record()
  • This option will stop checkdmarc.spf.parse_spf_record() from rasing exceptions related to too many DNS lookups, in support of the new feature
  • False by default to maintain backwards compatibility
  • checkdmarc.spf.check_spf() uses this functionality to support the new feature
