Two years of DMARCTrust: from the rejected folder to your inbox

Friends, Romans, Email Administrators,

Can you believe it? DMARCTrust is officially two years old!

That’s two years of parsing XML files so you don’t have to. Two years of explaining that, no, “p=none” is not a security strategy… that’s just the bare minimum. Two years of processing and understanding your brand’s reputation while you sleep.

The free stuff (because we like you)

We know, we know. Everyone loves free tools. That’s why we built the best DMARC Record Generator and DMARC Validity Checker in the business. They are free, they are fast, and they don’t ask for your credit card or your firstborn child.

Go ahead, use them. Abuse them. Check your competitors’ domains (we won’t tell). It’s on the house.

The real grit: why we are here

But let’s be honest. Generating a record is the easy part. The hard part is figuring out why Marketing Team B is sending emails from a server that’s failing SPF checks. Is it even your emails, or are they originating from a scammer?

That’s where our DMARC Monitoring Service comes in.

For just $49/month, we cover up to 5 domains. And unlike those “other guys” who charge you per email (seriously, who does that?), we offer unlimited email volume. Send a thousand emails? $49. Send a billion? Still $49. (Please don’t send a billion spam emails, though. We have standards.)

The rejected folder

We are calling our blog “The Rejected Folder” because that’s where bad emails go to die. But it’s also where we dig through the mess to find the gold. We handle the rejected reports, the forensic data, and the messy XML soup (looking at you, Japanese hosts that send non compliant XML reports, or Germans that use the same report ID for several reporting platforms), so your emails land right where they belong: the Inbox.

What’s next?

We have been seeing a lot of interest in the BIMI standard. Creating portable SVG can be hard if you do not tick the correct boxes in your Adobe products. We built a BIMI Tiny-PS Converter to help… and we have a few product extensions cooking for you!

Here’s to another year of clean headers, aligned DKIM signatures, and green checkmarks everywhere.

Cheers,
Marc & The DMARCTrust Team
