SPF lookups 6/10

SPF / DKIM / DMARC above reflect the last 1 email we've observed. DMARC policy is read live from DNS.

Authentication

DMARC reports sent to amazon.com. Policy p=quarantine means receivers actively block or quarantine spoofed mail.

SPF alignment: observed emails use a third-party return-path (bounces.amazon.com) — SPF passes there but doesn't align with imdb.com, so DMARC has to rely on DKIM alignment.

DKIM alignment: all 4 observed emails sign with a domain aligned with imdb.com (imdb.com). DKIM authenticates the visible From — supports DMARC directly.

Other ESPs detected

Brands often use multiple ESPs (e.g. one for marketing, another for transactional/notifications).

Placement by ESP

Which ESP's emails are landing where. Sorted by spam % so problem senders surface first. Brands using one ESP for marketing and another for transactional often see very different placement profiles per ESP. Per-ESP folder data only started being captured recently — counts here may be smaller than the total above until backfill catches up.
