Do I Need DMARC for BIMI?

Yes. To use your BIMI record and have it display alongside your email messages within your recipient's inboxes, you need to have a valid DMARC record published.

In order for this test to pass, you must visit your DNS hosting provider and create a DMARC record. If you have already created and published a DMARC record, this test is failing because the record is not valid. Some common reasons for this include:

  • The v tag does not have the correct value of DMARC1 (i.e., v=DMARC1)
  • The v tag is not the first tag-pair in the record (i.e., "p=none; v=DMARC1; rua=mailto:user@mxtoolbox.com;" would generate a fail result). A valid DMARC record should look like this: "v=DMARC1; p=none; etc." with the v tag as the first in the string.

One of the biggest hangups in deploying DMARC and BIMI is having the confidence to move your DMARC policy to quarantine or reject and ensuring your legitimate emails don't wind up in spam by mistake. We can help you with that. Our Delivery Center solution helps you setup DMARC, monitors your XML reports, and lets you know when its safe to change your DMARC policy. Even better - you can set it to automatically increase your policy if your rates look good. Plus once set you can start getting the benefits of BIMI.
