A simple reject policy is showing up as an error, despite validating fine with other DMARC checker apps like MX Toolbox,

    The From domain (...) has an invalid DMARC record.
    ...
    DMARC record found: v=DMARC1; p=reject;
    The DMARC check result is permerror.
No explanation as to what permerror means.

It might also be useful if the tool attempted to circumvent DNS caching, so users can try tests in succession after updating.

There was a small bug in our DMARC record parser (it didn't like the semicolon at the end of the record). Sorry for that. Your DMARC record is definitely correct. The issue should be fixed now.

Also, thanks for the idea about circumventing DNS caching. I'll look into adding that feature.
