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
  • !
    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
  • !
    Not all MX hosts use DANE
    These MX hosts publish no TLSA records, so mail to them is not protected by DANE: mail-router1.rz.tu-ilmenau.de, mail-router2.rz.tu-ilmenau.de, mail.tu-ilmenau.de.
