The delivability depends on the actual behaviour of the sender and not only the presence of three DNS records.

Steps.

  1. Identify the sender — Note envelope-(3) and From.
  2. Check SPF – The path of shipment must be authorized.
  3. Check for DKIM — Control selector and signature.
  4. Check DMARC — Analyze alignment and policy.

Commands

nslookup -type=txt example.com
nslookup -type=txt _dmarc.example.com

Key takeaways

  • Avoid multiple separate SPF records.
  • Pass DMARC to the mlan only after sufficient observation.
