Technical Findings

Email Authentication
SPF (Sender Policy) Configured
DMARC (Policy) Configured Policy: reject
DKIM (Signatures) Configured
Mail Posture Email: Enforced
Mail Transport Security
MTA-STS Partial
DANE / TLSA Hosted Provider DANE not available — Microsoft 365 does not support inbound DANE/TLSA on its MX infrastructure
TLS-RPT (Reporting) Not Configured
Mail Transport Not Enforced Policy-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) Open Any certificate authority may issue certificates
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.dnsstuff.com/.well-known/mta-sts.txt. This tells senders to require TLS when delivering mail to your domain.

_mta-sts.dnsstuff.com TXT "v=STSv1; id=20240101"
Low Add CAA records

Publish CAA DNS records to restrict which Certificate Authorities can issue TLS certificates for your domain. Specify your preferred CA (e.g., letsencrypt.org, digicert.com). CAA is advisory — CAs must check it before issuing, but absence means any CA can issue.

dnsstuff.com CAA 0 issue "letsencrypt.org"
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.dnsstuff.com TXT "v=TLSRPTv1; rua=mailto:tls-reports@dnsstuff.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.dnsstuff.com TXT "v=BIMI1; l=https://dnsstuff.com/logo.svg"
