Except I think I've had 1:1 personal e-mails from my domain go into a legitimate recipient's spam filter just because I didn't have DMARC set up and their mail server was flagging that "DMARC not set up == spammy domain"

That is perfectly reasonable. Set it up correctly.

It is so much easier to set these things up with a frontier AI to walk you through the Byzantine steps.

It takes an afternoon to set up DKIM and DMARC from scratch on a debian VPS. Yeah it's a little bit byzantine but it's not rocket science.

Yeah I did that. Now it seems I have to set up DKIM2 and DMARC2 and DCRAP3 and DSHIT4 for another afternoon instead of just going to work and getting shit done.

Good heavens an entire other afternoon after a decadal standards update. You’ll have to spend an afternoon upgrading off XP at some point too.

Too many admins just had it set to “no valid DMARC? Spam” instead of the more proper “failed DMARC? spam”.

Which is subtly different.
