Re: not really to do with Re: WG Review: Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance (dmarc)

Is there quantitative evidence that preventing spoofing of the
"From" address reduces the efficacy of phishing?

According to people I've talked to at large mail providers, apparently
so.  DMARC blocks a lot of mail that is clearly phish.

I would have thought that phishers would use any of the bazillion
obvious ways to circumvent DMARC, but they must be as lazy as anyone
else.
