A Perl based tool to parse DMARC reports, based on John Levine's rddmarc, but extended by the following features:
- Allow to read messages from an IMAP server and not only from the local filesystem.
- Store much more XML values into the database (for example the missing SPF and DKIM results from the policy_evaluated section) and also the entire XML for later reference.
- Needed database tables and columns are created automatically, user only needs to provide a database. The database schema is compatible to the one used by rddmarc, but extends it by additional fields. Users can switch from rddmarc to dmarcts-report-parser without having to do any changes to the database by themselves.
- Due to limitations in stock configurations of MySQL/MariaSQL on some distros, it may be necessary to add the following to your configuration (i.e. in /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf):
innodb_large_prefix = on
innodb_file_format = barracuda
innodb_file_per_table = true

To get your copy of the dmarcts-report-parser, you can either clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/techsneeze/dmarcts-report-parser.git
or download a zip file containg all files from here. Once the files have been downloaded, you will need to copy/rename dmarcts-report-parser.conf.sample to dmarcts-report-parser.conf. Next, edit the configuration options:

# however not for database errors.

The script is looking for dmarcts-report-parser.conf in the current working directory. If not found it will look by the calling path. If neither is found than it will abort.
Note: Be sure to use the proper hierarchy separator for your server in all folder specs, and if your IMAP server flattens the hierarchy (i.e. Cyrus IMAP with "altnamespace: yes") then leave "Inbox" off of the beginning of such specs.
./dmarcts-report-parser.pl [OPTIONS] [PATH]
PATH can be the filename of a single file or a list of files - wildcard expression are allowed.
Remember: This script needs a configurations file called <dmarcts-report-parser.conf> in the current working directory, which defines a database server with credentials and (if used) an IMAP server with credentials.
One of the following source options must be provided:
# -i : Read reports from messages on IMAP server as defined in the config file.
# -m : Read reports from mbox file(s) provided in PATH.
# -e : Read reports from MIME email file(s) provided in PATH.
# -x : Read reports from xml file(s) provided in PATH.
# -z : Read reports from zip file(s) provided in PATH.
The following options are always allowed:
# -d : Print debug info.
# -r : Replace existing reports rather than failing.
# --delete : Delete processed message files (the XML is stored in the
# database for later reference).
