Technical Findings

Email Authentication
SPF (Sender Policy) Configured
DMARC (Policy) Configured Policy: quarantine
DKIM (Signatures) Configured
Mail Posture Email: Enforced
Mail Transport Security
MTA-STS Partial
DANE / TLSA Hosted Provider No DANE/TLSA records found (checked 2 MX hosts)
TLS-RPT (Reporting) Not Configured
Mail Transport Not assessed
DNS Security
DNSSEC Signed & Validated
DNSSEC fully configured and validated — AD (Authenticated Data) flag set by resolver 8.8.8.8 confirming cryptographic chain of trust from root to zone (RFC 4035 §3.2.3)
NS Delegation Healthy
Brand & Certificate Controls
BIMI (Brand Logo) Not Configured
CAA (Certificate) Configured
Priority Actions 4 total Achievable: Low Risk
Medium Deploy MTA-STS policy

Publish an MTA-STS DNS record and host a policy file at https://mta-sts.yourdomain.com/.well-known/mta-sts.txt. This tells senders to require TLS when delivering mail to your domain.

_mta-sts.yourdomain.com TXT "v=STSv1; id=20240101"
Low Upgrade DMARC to reject policy

Your DMARC policy is quarantine — spoofed messages are flagged. Upgrading to p=reject blocks them entirely. Review aggregate reports to confirm legitimate senders are aligned.

_dmarc.yourdomain.com TXT "v=DMARC1; p=reject; rua=mailto:dmarc-reports@yourdomain.com"
Low Configure TLS-RPT reporting

TLS-RPT (TLS Reporting) sends you reports about TLS connection failures when other servers try to deliver mail to your domain. Helps diagnose MTA-STS and STARTTLS issues.

_smtp._tls.yourdomain.com TXT "v=TLSRPTv1; rua=mailto:tls-reports@yourdomain.com"
Low Configure BIMI brand logo

Publish a BIMI DNS record pointing to your brand logo (SVG Tiny PS format). For full support in Gmail, you will also need a Verified Mark Certificate (VMC).

default._bimi.yourdomain.com TXT "v=BIMI1; l=https://yourdomain.com/logo.svg"
