delete links.email.donate.wikimedia.org (and all other email.donate.*?) from DNS
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

see parent task at T74514#2054108 and following

"So is links.email.donate.wikimedia.org still in use? If not, can we remove it from the DNS record?"

"It will be in use for another couple of weeks, until the Swedish banners
come down. ... I can update this task once all the Swedish emails are out."

This ticket is for that update and removing it from DNS

Event Timeline

My comment was incorrect, this domain is no longer in use. Feel free to delete the DNS record!

How about this one:

open.email.donate.wikimedia.org

When i look at DNS i see these 2 lines, related to mkt41

links.email.donate 1H IN CNAME recp.mkt41.net.
open.email.donate 1H IN CNAME open.mkt41.net.

Would it be possible to get a full list of DNS entries you want to remove?

I’m seeing A, MX, CNAME and TXT records we likely can remove. Looking
through old tickets, anything that is *.email.donate.wikimedia.org should
be able to go. I’m 90% certain we can remove those. Open tracking is now at
http://links.wikimedia.mkt4477.com/open/*

Removing DNS kind of makes me nervous, and over the years our DNS has been
updated several times. Can we coordinate a time on when these are all
removed? Then we should have 48 hours planned without sending any email.

So far i just wanted to delete links.email.donate.wikimedia.org
(because it was listed on https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Httpsless_domains and i saw the bug link there)

then i saw the "open.email.donate" and now since you said that, yes there is more with "email.donate" in it.

we also have:

spop1024._domainkey.email.donate
bounce.email.donate
email.donate
mail3880.email.donate
reply.email.donate
open.email.donate
www.email.donate

But i know nothing about them and agree, it would also make me nervous to delete more of that, especially now before the long weekend. So i won't make any change today and we should investigate this to make really sure.

Dzahn renamed this task from delete links.email.donate.wikimedia.org from DNS to delete links.email.donate.wikimedia.org (and all other email.donate.*?) from DNS.Mar 18 2016, 9:50 PM

Great, thanks @Dzahn. We're double checking this list with IBM to be extra careful, so I'll confirm by Tuesday that this looks OK to remove on our end. If you come across any others you want to look into removing, let me know.

@CCogdill_WMF Sounds great. thank you. They should be all. this is the full list i find with grep across the repository with the DNS templates.

@Dzahn I've confirmed it's fine on our side to delete all the subdomains
you listed from the DNS. Please just give us a heads up before you do it,
and we will put a cautionary hold on sending bulk email. Tuesday or Friday
would be best for our send schedule, but I can be flexible with a little
heads up :)

@CCogdill_WMF Sorry, i didn't get to this yet and now it's Friday again and i will be on vacation for a week. I'll get back to this after April 9th and we can figure out a date. Thanks again.

No problem, thanks for keeping me updated @Dzahn. Have a nice vacation!

Hi @CCogdill_WMF i'm back and you said Tuesday or Friday are good days for your schedule. Could we do it today?

@CCogdill_WMF @BBlack great, we can merge it now then it looks

@CCogdill_WMF We have merged the config change on the DNS servers. Changes should be noticable within an hour since the TTL for the records was set to 1H. Let us know if any issues pop up, and thank you very much!

Hi @Dzahn, I think a record was deleted that we didn't discuss. "spop1024._domainkey.wikimedia.org" is gone, and we were only supposed to remove "spop1024._domainkey.email.donate.wikimedia.org". Can we add this back ASAP? Thank you!
