| # | Protocol | Finding | Severity | Fix |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | DKIM | Not Detected | High | Ensure your email provider has published DKIM keys. If using a custom selector, DKIM may still be active. |
| 2 | BIMI | Not Found | High | Publish a BIMI record with your brand SVG logo. Requires DMARC at p=quarantine or p=reject with pct=100. |
| 3 | MTA-STS | Enforced | Low | Increase max_age to at least 604800 (7 days) for stable caching. |
