What is DMARC?
DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance) is an email authentication protocol that gives domain owners control over what happens to emails that fail SPF or DKIM checks.
It works by publishing a policy in your DNS that tells receiving mail servers whether to accept, quarantine, or reject emails that don't pass authentication.
How to Read Your DMARC Record
v=DMARC1 — Required. Identifies this as a DMARC record.
p=none|quarantine|reject — The policy. None = monitor, Quarantine = spam folder, Reject = block.
rua=mailto: — Where to send aggregate reports (daily summaries).
ruf=mailto: — Where to send forensic reports (individual failures).
pct= — What percentage of failing emails the policy applies to (default 100).
