DMARC Management and Reporting

DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance) tells the email server what you would like them to do with the fakes and imposters upon checking incoming email. If incoming mail fails SPF/DKIM checks, it can be marked as suspicious or even thrown out, keeping your domain out of the phishing and malicious scams threatening the inbox. DMARC allows domain owners to set policies for handling emails that fail SPF or DKIM checks. These policies can include monitoring, quarantining, or outright rejecting suspicious emails.

All Pro level accounts can build upon their custom SPF and DKIM authentication to provide a comprehensive email authentication framework for an unlimited number of domains. All Basic level accounts can use create and manage this record for 1 custom domain within their account.

Once your DMARC record is configured to include ReachMail, major email inbox providers will periodically send DMARC reports that you can review in an easy to use interface to ensure that the email is only originating from expected and authorized sources. ReachMail will provide you with a basic summary of the reports along with the original document to review all the details about your domain. ReachMail also offers support to help further understand these reports through our experienced deliverability team.

With the growing privacy requirements more and more inbox providers will either strongly encourage or even require a proper DMARC policy for your custom domain to ensure the best delivery of marketing messages. Also, beginning a DMARC policy is a journey for your domain it can take time and patience so in order to maintain compliance and deliverability the earliest you can start this journey the better for your marketing strategies.
