What is DMARC?

DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance) is an email authentication protocol that helps protect your domain from unauthorized use, commonly known as email spoofing.

A DMARC record is published in your DNS and tells receiving mail servers what to do when an email fails SPF and DKIM authentication checks. It also provides a way for receivers to report back to you about messages that pass and/or fail DMARC evaluation.

DMARC Policy Options

  • none: Monitor mode - no action taken on failing emails
  • quarantine: Failing emails are sent to spam/junk folder
  • reject: Failing emails are rejected entirely
