Fix Your DMARC Setup Automatically. Build Trust. Deliver More Emails.
A broken DMARC record can ruin your sender reputation. We automatically fix it, ensuring compliance, security, and higher inbox placement for every email you send.
Inbox or Spam? Your DMARC Record Decides.
Your emails aren’t just competing for attention; they’re competing for trust. Email providers rely on DMARC to decide whether your messages belong in the inbox or the spam folder.
Spam Placement
A weak or missing DMARC record signals that your emails might not be trustworthy, increasing the risk of them landing in spam.
Domain Spoofing
Without proper DMARC enforcement, cybercriminals can impersonate your domain, damaging your brand’s credibility.
Reputation at Stake
A poorly configured DMARC setup can put you on blocklists, weaken sender trust, and hurt your email deliverability.

A DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance) record is a type of DNS record that helps protect your email domain from impostors and phishing attacks by authenticating your mail against email authentication protocols like SPF and DKIM records. It lets you set policies for handling email messages that don’t pass DMARC authentication.
Major email providers like Google Workspace and Yahoo use DMARC as part of their anti-spam measures, making it essential for preventing unauthorized emails, email security, brand protection, and improving deliverability. By enforcing DMARC, you ensure only legitimate messages from your domain reach inboxes, building trust and credibility.
Sparkle helps you add DMARC, automates DMARC settings, monitoring, and enforcement, so you don’t have to deal with complex DNS settings and DMARC validation. It provides real-time insights, alerts for issues, and clear recommendations to keep your email authentication strong.

DMARC failures happen when emails don’t pass SPF or DKIM authentication and don’t align with your domain’s DMARC policy. Common causes include:
- Misconfigured SPF or DKIM Records – Missing or incorrect DNS records.
- Alignment Issues – “From” domain doesn’t match SPF/DKIM domains.
- Unauthorized Third-Party Service – Email services like Mailchimp or CRMs aren’t properly authenticated.
- DNS Propagation Delays – Recent changes haven’t taken effect yet.
- Overly Strict DMARC Policy – Rejecting legitimate emails due to misalignment.
Sparkle fixes these issues by ensuring your DMARC record is formatted correctly, validating SPF, DKIM, and DMARC authentication, aligning domains, authorizing sending domain, and providing clear DMARC report insights.
A DMARC aggregate report is a high-level summary of email authentication results, sent by email providers to help domain owners monitor and enforce DMARC policies. It includes:
- Sending IP Addresses & Sources – Lists where your emails are coming from.
- Authentication Results – Shows if emails passed or failed SPF, DKIM, and DMARC checks.
- Policy Actions – Details whether emails were delivered, quarantined, or rejected.
- Alignment Insights – Indicates if email headers align with your DMARC policy.
Traffic Overview – Reports email volume for each sending source.
- Aggregate Reports (RUA) – These are summarized reports that show overall authentication results, including sending sources, authentication pass/fail rates, and policy actions. These help identify trends and spot potential issues without exposing email content.
- Forensic Reports (RUF) – These are detailed, per-email failure reports, showing full headers and sometimes bounce message samples. These are useful for investigating spoofing or authentication failures, but may raise privacy concerns.
Both reports help monitor DMARC performance, but aggregate reports provide broad insights, while forensic reports offer granular details for deeper analysis.
A DMARC DNS TXT record is a text entry in your domain’s DNS settings that defines how email providers should handle messages that fail authentication checks using SPF and DKIM. It looks something like this: “v=DMARC1;p=none;sp=none;rua=mailto:dm***@ex*****.com” data-original-string=”e8X1vys8lbLDulJltgMk1w==558rxJ0qlCALDrW10d/CMfoxTRmMtg9CK+VuxLPSKCNKXw=” title=”This contact has been encoded by Anti-Spam by CleanTalk.

DMARC tags are little codes within a DMARC record that instruct recipient servers on how to handle emails if a DMARC check is required. Some common DMARC tags are:
- “v” sets the DMARC version, usually “DMARC1”.
- “p” directs the recipient server on what to do with emails from the domain (either do nothing, quarantine, or reject them).
- “sp” sets the policy for subdomains.
- “rua”: These are the mail addresses that should receive aggregate reports of the DMARC checks.
- “ruf”: These are the mail addresses where forensic reports should be sent.
- “pct”: This is the percentage tag that specifies the percentage of messages to put through the DMARC policy check.
Don’t Let DMARC Setup Be Your Weak Link!
The longer your DMARC remains misconfigured, the more it costs you—in deliverability, domain reputation, and control. Let Sparkle keep it in check.
