I’m not sure why deliverability people are even mentioned here. The problems with DMARC primarily affect one-to-one or one-to-few mails, not bulk mails. The breakage DMARC causes doesn’t really affect marketing, newsletters or anything else sent through automated systems. I mean, yeah, some folks aren’t going to get their bulk mails because of DMARC failures but mail fails all the times for lots of different reasons. DMARC broke how a lot of people and corporations use email as a communication medium and I, for one, welcome the attempts to finally address the fallout. I think if these issues are addressed more comprehensively you’ll see a much bigger adoption for DMARC, particularly among larger companies. laura -- Having an Email Crisis?
