  Policy in testing mode

  With mode: testing, senders only report TLS problems (via TLS-RPT) and still deliver without TLS. Switch to mode: enforce once reports are clean.

  #33
• ✓ All MX hosts covered #34

  Every MX host matches an mx: line of the MTA-STS policy.
• !

  Not configured

  MTA-STS or DANE is used without TLS-RPT, so you get no reports when senders fail to deliver because of TLS problems. Publish _smtp._tls TXT "v=TLSRPTv1; rua=mailto:...".

  #35
• i

  Not used

  No MX host publishes TLSA records. DANE lets senders verify your mail server's certificate through DNSSEC; it requires DNSSEC on the MX host's zone.
