parsedmarc
parsedmarc is a service which parses incoming DMARC reports and stores or sends them to a downstream service for further analysis. In combination with Elasticsearch, Grafana and the included Grafana dashboard, it provides a handy overview of DMARC reports over time.
Basic usage
A very minimal setup which reads incoming reports from an external email address and saves them to a local Elasticsearch instance looks like this:
services.parsedmarc = {
enable = true;
settings.imap = {
host = "imap.example.com";
user = "alice@example.com";
password = "/path/to/imap_password_file";
};
provision.geoIp = false; # Not recommended!
};
Note that GeoIP provisioning is disabled in the example for simplicity, but should be turned on for fully functional reports.
Local mail
Instead of watching an external inbox, a local inbox can be
automatically provisioned. The recipient's name is by default set to
dmarc, but can be configured in
services.parsedmarc.provision.localMail.recipientName. You
need to add an MX record pointing to the host. More concretely: for
the example to work, an MX record needs to be set up for
monitoring.example.com and the complete email address that should be
configured in the domain's dmarc policy is
dmarc@monitoring.example.com.
services.parsedmarc = {
enable = true;
provision = {
localMail = {
enable = true;
hostname = monitoring.example.com;
};
geoIp = false; # Not recommended!
};
};
Grafana and GeoIP
The reports can be visualized and summarized with parsedmarc's official Grafana dashboard. For all views to work, and for the data to be complete, GeoIP databases are also required. The following example shows a basic deployment where the provisioned Elasticsearch instance is automatically added as a Grafana datasource, and the dashboard is added to Grafana as well.
services.parsedmarc = {
enable = true;
provision = {
localMail = {
enable = true;
hostname = url;
};
grafana = {
datasource = true;
dashboard = true;
};
};
};
# Not required, but recommended for full functionality
services.geoipupdate = {
settings = {
AccountID = 000000;
LicenseKey = "/path/to/license_key_file";
};
};
services.grafana = {
enable = true;
addr = "0.0.0.0";
domain = url;
rootUrl = "https://" + url;
protocol = "socket";
security = {
adminUser = "admin";
adminPasswordFile = "/path/to/admin_password_file";
secretKeyFile = "/path/to/secret_key_file";
};
};
services.nginx = {
enable = true;
recommendedTlsSettings = true;
recommendedOptimisation = true;
recommendedGzipSettings = true;
recommendedProxySettings = true;
upstreams.grafana.servers."unix:/${config.services.grafana.socket}" = {};
virtualHosts.${url} = {
root = config.services.grafana.staticRootPath;
enableACME = true;
forceSSL = true;
locations."/".tryFiles = "$uri @grafana";
locations."@grafana".proxyPass = "http://grafana";
};
};
users.users.nginx.extraGroups = [ "grafana" ];
