A good grade can still be forged

Your records decide what a forged email in your name meets. Stamp works it out without sending one. Shown for a made-up domain.

Yes. An attacker can buy a domain your SPF trusts, and send as acme.example.

  1. Forge your address

    Send from any server with From: ceo@acme.example.

    DMARC fails and the policy says refuse, so forged mail is turned away at the door.

    Refused
  2. Make up a subdomain

    Send as billing@secure.acme.example, a name you never created.

    DMARC fails, and the policy is report-only, so nothing tells the receiver to act on mail from a made-up subdomain.

    Not stopped
  3. Borrow a service you use

    Open an account at a service your SPF approves, and try to send as you.

    Your SPF approves servers shared with every other customer of SendGrid. Mail from them passes SPF, so it rests on those services verifying who owns your domain.

    Depends
  4. Buy a domain you trust

    Register an expired domain your records still point at.

    old-mailer.example is unregistered and in your SPF. Whoever registers it can pass as acme.example.

    Not stopped

Worked out on paper from what acme.example publishes; nothing is sent. It shows what your records ask, not what any inbox will do.

The forged letter

Simulated. Nothing was sent. What a receiver would write on mail forged as acme.example, worked out from its records.

What the receiver would add

Authentication-Results: mx.receiver.example;

  • spf=softfail (sender IP is 192.0.2.25, not approved) smtp.mailfrom=ceo@acme.example

    SPF says probably not allowed, but only advises.

  • dkim=none (message not signed)

    The forger has no key, so there is no signature.

  • dmarc=fail (p=REJECT dis=REJECT) header.from=acme.example

    DMARC fails, and the policy says refuse.

  • A refused message never reaches an inbox; these results stay in the receiver's logs.

16 of 195well-known organisations do not ask receivers to act on mail forged in their name.

What each organisation's records asked receivers to do with a fake on 4 November 2026. This is not a judgement of its overall security.
