I just realized that one of the best things I did for my email-inbox was consequently deleting everything where SPF validation fails.

Since then: Almost no Spam any more.

I created a rule in my email-client that email with an SPF header that contains "fail" are directly deleted.

Next up: implement that on the server level.

And I hope that one day that'll be the default and those 2/3 of total email volume that is spam are gone. One can dream!

SPF permerror: the silent policy killer

RFC 7208 Section 2.6.7 is unforgiving

exceed 10 DNS lookups and your SPF result flips to permerror

which most receivers treat as a fail

the insidious part: you can be at exactly 10 lookups today, then a vendor adds a nested include and you're at 12 tomorrow

no notification, no warning

you either use sub-domain for sending emails, or you flatten them

DMARC has changed, so I updated the LearnDMARC quiz to match the new RFCs.

Think you still know DMARC inside out?

I challenge every email authentication nerd, deliverability specialist, postmaster, DNS wrangler, and DMARC report parser builder to take the full 42-question quiz and see how RFC-ready you really are.

If you can ace them all, you’re an absolute DMARC nerd. And even if you don’t get every answer right, I guarantee you’ll learn something.

The quiz was desktop-only until now, but after 816 people started it today, I decided to make it available on mobile too.

Take the full quiz:

Let me know your score, and challenge your colleagues by tagging them in the comments. Bonus points if you find a question that made you doubt yourself.
