Why use the DMARC record checker?

DMARC records protect your domain from email spoofing and phishing attacks. Our tool helps you ensure your DMARC records are properly configured and secure.

security Validate DMARC Policy: Check if your DMARC record follows proper syntax and policy configuration according to RFC standards.
policy Policy Analysis: Analyze your DMARC policy settings (none, quarantine, reject) and subdomain policies for optimal protection.
error Error Detection: Identify common DMARC errors like invalid policies, missing tags, and configuration issues.
mail Reporting Configuration: Verify your DMARC reporting setup and ensure you're receiving aggregate and forensic reports.

Understanding DMARC Records

DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance) is an email authentication protocol that helps protect your domain from email spoofing and phishing attacks.

description DMARC Record Format: DMARC records are TXT records published at "_dmarc.domain.com" that start with "v=DMARC1" and contain policy directives.
policy Policy Options: Set policy to "none" for monitoring, "quarantine" to send suspicious emails to spam, or "reject" to block them entirely.
analytics Reporting Setup: Configure "rua" for aggregate reports and "ruf" for forensic reports to monitor email authentication.
tune Alignment Settings: Configure SPF and DKIM alignment (aspf/adkim) to control how strictly authentication must match your domain.

DMARC Best Practices

Follow these guidelines to implement effective DMARC protection that defends against email spoofing while maintaining deliverability.

check Start with Monitoring: Begin with "p=none" to monitor email authentication without affecting delivery. Analyze reports before enforcing policies.
check Gradual Implementation: Progress from "none" to "quarantine" to "reject" gradually. Use percentage (pct) to apply policies to a subset of emails initially.
check Monitor Reports: Set up aggregate (rua) and forensic (ruf) reporting to track authentication results and identify legitimate senders.
