Since as mentioned above, it now Discards the majority of spam email, this is less-necessary. Therefore, closing as resolved. If you still want to go the other route as well, please do reopen it.

While this wasn't necessarily the initial task here, I did do https://github.com/miraheze/puppet/pull/3113 to reduce the overall spam sent by discarding spam with a level of 7 or higher from SpamAssassin.

This has been fixed. This was generating around 1440 failures a day - in order to meet the error threshold with these numbers, we'd need to have sent 144000 emails a day, or 100 a minute. As we don't operate at these volumes, this was always going to be the case.

I don't see Paladox not being opposed, so until we have an answer from him I'd say we should wait.

Cool. Thanks! :)

Can any SRE team member approve this, or does it need an EM?

I don't know. Technically this falls under infrastructure, I just decided to do it because I could, I think paladox said to raise to 24 hours needed some discussion so potentially needs EM approval here.

This is funny because I was also considering opening a task for this since it's quite annoying to have to log in multiple times per day.

On the technical side however, if Paladox said it needed discussion I'd like his opinion before going forward with this.

I could support 12 hours also. 1 hour would be better than no change, but still too short.

https://github.com/miraheze/puppet/pull/2618 for 24 hours.

It is now one hour but we can consider 24 hours, but that needs some discussion.

The default setting (and as it was prior to that PR) is 10 minutes @Dmehus

I've also had some experience with this which is why I went ahead with the PR.

It sets it to one hour.

Thanks!

Webmail is blocked on T8481, but should be a quick resolution once that is sorted

I will do this fully on Thursday/Friday - whenever we do the final LDAP sync.

Either, just make sure the email account isn’t active

This is done then.

I've removed him from the board alias.
