DMARC
How DMARC works
- Validate the DKIM key.
- Verify whether the email was sent from an IP address that's listed in the SPF record.
- Verify whether the headers in the email message show proper domain alignment.
Decoding the DMARC record
How to implement DMARC records
- Validate your SPF and DKIM records
- Generate a DMARC record
- Add the record to your domain's DNS
Validate your SPF and DKIM records
- For your SPF record, ensure that the "from address" and the "return-path address" match
- For your DKIM record, ensure that the "from address" and the "d" tag of the record match.
Generate a DMARC record
Add DMARC record to your domain's DNS
The final step is to add the DMARC record to the DNS server as a TXT record. Each domain hosting provider has a different process for completing this task. You can do this last step on your own or get your domain hosting provider to help you.
Choose an email account to receive DMARC reports
Benefits of implementing DMARC
- Prevents fraudsters from using your sender domain to perform spoofing activities.
- Improves email deliverability as implementing DMARC will get you into the good books of mailbox providers and anti-spam service.
- It helps you monitor the emails you send and gives you control over how mailbox providers handle unauthenticated emails sent from your domain.
