This is good, no action means not blocked or rejected.

Is this domain configured with a p=reject policy? What insights do the reports provide? Are messages rejected, or do SPF or DKIM pass validation? The M3AAWG published best common practices for parked domains: www.m3aawg.org/sites/defaul...

It also includes a quiz for anyone who believes they have mastered the fundamentals and would like to test their knowledge. I am curious to see if you can achieve a perfect 10 out of 10. 😎

Learn and test SPF, DKIM and DMARC Visualize, analyze and improve your email authentication setup

An exceptionally well written and comprehensive post! Thanks for sharing! To make email authentication easier to understand, I created LearnDMARC.com. It is a free tool that visually explains how the validation process works, making it much clearer how SPF, DKIM, and DMARC interact.

This is one of the most inaccurate and confusing DMARC infographics I’ve seen. It appears to be created either by someone unfamiliar with the standard or by a flawed AI tool.

SPF Macros: Overcoming the 10 DNS Lookup Limit If your domain relies heavily on third-party services to send emails on its behalf, you could encounter the DNS lookup limit outlined in section 4.6.4 of RFC7208, resulting in an SPF permerror. Withou...

RFC 7489 does not mention "forensic reports" anywhere. Section 7.3 refers to "failure reports," which can be used for forensic analysis. To avoid confusionβ€”especially among those new to email authenticationβ€”we should use the correct terminology.

Failure reports are incorrectly referred to as "Forensic Reports,". Additionally, the explanation of "Relaxed Alignment" could be improved as it means that subdomains are ignored for alignment purposes, and as long as the Organizational Domain matches, the identifier will pass alignment.

Learn and test SPF, DKIM and DMARC Visualize, analyze and improve your email authentication setup

DMARC: Instructs receiving mail servers (MTAs) on how to handle messages when *BOTH* SPF and DKIM checks fail, and provides detailed reports. Additionally, DMARC checks alignment between the domain used for authentication and the domain in the RFC5322.From header. πŸ‘‰ learnDMARC.com

This isn't a DMARC monitoring tool; it simply validates the email authentication of a message you send to it. In contrast, a DMARC monitoring service provides insight into all email traffic claiming to come from your domain.

Google DMARC reports are back! After going quiet since April 13, Google has resumed sending DMARC aggregate reports as of 19:15 UTC today. So far, the reports only include data from yesterday (April 16), but it is a good sign that things are starting to flow again.

MTA-STS-POLICY Check incorrectly identifies the policy as being in testing mode, even though it is set to enforce. Consider adding an explanation that the site’s inability to detect DKIM doesn’t necessarily mean DKIM isn’t configured or working correctly. Do you check for all common selectors?

Even if a domain is not used for email, enabling DMARC helps prevent spoofing. It is also essential to configure SPF, DKIM, and DMARC for parked domains. www.m3aawg.org/sites/defaul...
