SPF / DKIM / DMARC above reflect the last 10 emails we've observed. DMARC policy is read live from DNS.

Authentication

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

SPF alignment: all 157 observed emails use a return-path aligned with therundown.ai (em8370.daily.therundown.ai, em1477.technews.therundown.ai, em9092.learn.therundown.ai). SPF authenticates the visible From — supports DMARC directly.

DKIM alignment: all 133 observed emails sign with a domain aligned with therundown.ai (daily.therundown.ai, technews.therundown.ai, learn.therundown.ai). DKIM authenticates the visible From — supports DMARC directly.

TLS: modern — 100% TLS 1.3 (across 58 sends).

Delivery: fast — 96% of emails in the last 7 days arrive in under 10 seconds (across 23 sends).

Gmail trust warnings observed
  • ⚠️ "Be careful with this message" banner — observed on 1 email (1% of tracked) · last seen Jun 9, 2026

Gmail's own filter showed these warnings to real subscribers in their inbox — independent of SPF/DKIM/DMARC pass/fail status. A consistent pattern often signals reputation issues or brand-impersonation concerns.

Other ESPs detected

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

None — only the primary ESP(s) shown above

Other SPF authorizations

ESPs this brand has authorized in their SPF record. We confirm them with a green ✓ only after seeing recurring use (3+ emails across 2+ days). Until then they stay here — either we haven't observed any email yet, or we've seen a handful but not enough to call them a regular sender for the brand.

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.
