What is it? A DMARC Record provides instructions to receiving servers about how to handle incoming mail. In order to get delivered, messages need to pass DKIM and SPF alignment checks according to the requirements set by the DMARC policy. Messages that do not pass DMARC checks can be rejected, reported back to the domain owner, or placed in the spam folder.
Why Add it? Not having a DMARC Record can negatively impact your domain reputation and email deliverability. Often, mailbox providers count it against you when DMARC Records are not set up properly - resulting in emails going to SPAM.
How to Add it? To add a DMARC record, you must log into your DNS provider and add the following TXT record below.
Add a TXT Record in your DNS Setting for your DMARC policy without the ""
Type: “TXT”
Name: “_dmarc”
Content: “v=DMARC1; p=reject"
To confirm your DMARC Record is applied correctly, you can use this DMARC Checker.
