Registry notes

Subscribed and confirmed 2026-07-29 (sender [address withheld]). Sibling of dea-press, which returns HTTP 403 to our identified client — the first working input for this agency. The Diversion Control Division list is subscribed but awaiting email confirmation. Gate-3 coverage evaluation (2026-07-30, from live delivery): 1 bulletin -> 1 item on 2026-07-30 (main DEA account; the Diversion Control list remains unconfirmed separately). DKIM-verified with the key archived; the bulletin stream is the subscription's own measure of coverage, observed continuously by the collector.

How we ingest it

Channel

email bulletin

Method

Subscription bulletins to the project mailbox, ingested by the email adapter (src/fapd/email_sources.py; raw RFC-5322 capture, DKIM verify-and-archive).

Adapter

govdelivery

Poll cadence

the project mailbox is read about every 15 minutes

Requests

none — bulletins are delivered to the project mailbox by the agency's own subscription service

Authenticity

every message's DKIM signature is checked on arrival and the result is disclosed on each item; a failing signature is labeled, never silently dropped

Capture and hash

captured raw content is hashed (SHA-256) into the day's committed provenance manifest, hash-chained day to day (PROVENANCE.md)

Ingestion health

●Ingestion health: delivering 2 item(s) in the last 14 days; most recent 2026-08-03, delivered by email.

This label has held since 2026-08-03T18:46:01Z (UTC) and was last re-checked 2026-08-03T19:51:47Z (UTC).

Counts are of our own requests, retries included. A 4xx or 5xx is the server declining to return content — that may be load, maintenance, on-demand generation, or a limit the publisher sets, and we cannot tell which from outside. Nothing here is a measurement of the publisher.

Ingestion statistics

These figures describe this project's ingestion of this source — items we recorded and requests we made — and nothing else. They are not a measurement of the publisher.
