DMARC

fail

p=none (_dmarc.sueddeutsche.de)

Found

Record: v=DMARC1;p=none
Found at: _dmarc.sueddeutsche.de

Tag	Value	Meaning
v	DMARC1	Version
p	none	Policy

Checks

✗

Policy: none (monitoring only)

DMARC policy is set to 'none', which only monitors but doesn't protect against spoofing. Consider upgrading to 'quarantine' or ideally 'reject'.

#4
✓ Record published #5

DMARC record exists for this domain.
✓ Valid syntax #17

DMARC record syntax is valid.
!

No aggregate reports (rua)

DMARC record has no rua tag, so you receive no aggregate reports about who sends mail as your domain. Add rua=mailto:...

TLS

warn

no MTA-STS · no TLS-RPT · DANE on 0 of 1 MX hosts

Found

DANE (TLSA records)

MX host	TLSA	DNSSEC
sueddeutsche-de.mail.protection.outlook.com	none	-

Checks

!

Not configured

MTA-STS is not configured, so other mail servers fall back to unencrypted delivery when TLS fails or is stripped by an attacker. Publish a _mta-sts TXT record and a policy at https://mta-sts.<domain>/.well-known/mta-sts.txt.

#32
i

Not configured

TLS-RPT lets senders report TLS delivery problems to you. It is most useful together with MTA-STS or DANE.

#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.

DMARC not strict enough for BIMI

Mail clients will not show the logo. BIMI requires DMARC p=quarantine or p=reject (now p=none), a subdomain policy other than sp=none.
