Confirm the DMARC policy published by a domain

For web teams checking a launch or tracing a fault, this test provides an immediate point of reference. Confirm the DMARC policy published by a domain.

Confirm the DMARC policy published by a domain. A clear result helps you confirm the current setup or pinpoint a fault without command-line work.

How to use

  1. Enter the domain whose published DMARC policy you want to check, using the exact name without a path.
  2. Launch the test to run the DNS query and retrieve the current DMARC record.
  3. Read the result to identify the active policy and any visible anomalies or missing values.
  4. Compare the displayed policy with the one you believe you published for that domain.
  5. Clear the field to test another domain or return to an empty input for a fresh check.

Example

After changing your DMARC record, you test the domain to confirm that the new policy is visible. The result acts as a checkpoint before you announce the change to your team or continue troubleshooting.

Limits and formats

Where processing happens

The domain you enter is sent to the YOORfree server, which queries public DNS itself and returns the result. No file is uploaded; only the request needed to check the DMARC policy is performed. You can repeat the check after each update to confirm the published policy.

Frequently asked questions

Why is no policy found?

It can mean the domain has not published a DMARC record yet, or that DNS propagation is not complete. Check the exact domain and the expected TXT record before assuming a problem.

Does the test work for a subdomain?

Yes, you can enter a subdomain to see the policy that applies to it. Keep in mind that DMARC may inherit a parent policy or use a specific subdomain policy depending on the setup.

What should I compare in the result?

Look at the stated policy, reporting addresses, and alignment hints. Compare them with the configuration you documented to spot an inconsistency or a missing publication step.
