Findings
-
spf
SPF ends in ~all (softfail); unauthorised mail is marked rather than rejected.
v=spf1 ip4:212.58.224.0/19 ip4:132.185.0.0/16 +include:spf.sis.bbc.co.uk +include:spf.messagelabs.com ~all
Fix: Move to -all once you have confirmed all senders are listed.
-
dkim
No DKIM key found at any common selector. Either DKIM is not configured, or it uses a custom selector we cannot discover from DNS alone.
Fix: Enable DKIM signing at your mail provider and publish the selector they give you.
-
mta sts
No MTA-STS policy, so inbound mail can be downgraded to an unencrypted connection.
Fix: Publish _mta-sts.bbc.co.uk and host a policy at https://mta-sts.bbc.co.uk/.well-known/mta-sts.txt.
