    DMARC

    On host
    OK
    v=DMARC1; p=reject; rua=mailto:dmarc@grammarly.com; adkim=s; aspf=s; pct=100
    • Policy: reject
    • Alignment: adkim=s, aspf=s
    • pct=100
    • rua=mailto:dmarc@grammarly.com
    Explain this
    What: DMARC tells receivers what to do when mail fails authentication & alignment.
    Why: Enforcing DMARC protects your brand and unlocks BIMI logos.
    Policies:
    • p=none – Monitor only; meets minimum sending, but doesn’t protect your brand.
    • p=quarantine – Failing mail goes to spam (receiver discretion).
    • p=reject – Failing mail is rejected outright.
    Reports (rua): Aggregate XML reports surface failures (incl. sender requirements). Example:
    <policy_evaluated>
  <disposition>none</disposition>
  <dkim>fail</dkim>
  <spf>fail</spf>
  <reason>
    <type>local_policy</type>
    <comment>Sender requirement failed: 550-5.7.1</comment>
  </reason>
</policy_evaluated>

    BIMI

    On root
    OK
    v=BIMI1; l=https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4f/SVG_Logo.svg; a=https://example.com/cert.pem
    • Certificate: https://example.com/cert.pem
    • Issuer: Entrust, Inc.
    • Issued: Jan 10, 2024
    • Expires: Jan 10, 2026
    Logo preview
    BIMI logo
    Explain this
    What: BIMI lets supporting inboxes show your verified brand logo.
    Why: Improves recognition & trust. Gmail requires a valid VMC/CMC; Yahoo does not.
    Good looks like: DMARC enforced + BIMI TXT at default._bimi.domain with Tiny-PS SVG (l=) and an active VMC/CMC (a= for Gmail).

    Apple Business Connect

    OK
    apple-domain-verification=ABCD
    • Token: ABCD
    • Apple verification confirms brand ownership in Apple services (not BIMI).
    Explain this
    What: Apple’s domain verification for branded experiences (e.g., Mail Digest tiles). Separate from BIMI.
    Why: Without it, Apple falls back to initials.
    More than a TXT: Setup involves Business Connect + Mail branding configuration (not just the TXT). Apple’s guide.
