Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance
(DMARC) is a scalable mechanism by which a mail-originating
organization can express domain-level policies and preferences for
message validation, disposition, and reporting, that a mail-receiving
organization can use to improve mail handling.

Originators of Internet Mail need to be able to associate reliable
and authenticated domain identifiers with messages, communicate
policies about messages that use those identifiers, and report about
mail using those identifiers.  These abilities have several benefits:
Receivers can provide feedback to Domain Owners about the use of
their domains; this feedback can provide valuable insight about the
management of internal operations and the presence of external domain
name abuse.

DMARC does not produce or encourage elevated delivery privilege of
authenticated email.  DMARC is a mechanism for policy distribution
that enables increasingly strict handling of messages that fail
authentication checks, ranging from no action, through altered
delivery, up to message rejection.
