Approve a Sender for a Domain

As DMARC Protection accumulates data about the entities that send mail on behalf of your domains, you will want to approve well-known senders for each domain so...

  1. Go to Diagnostics > Senders.
  2. Click Single Domain, then select a domain. This list contains all of the domains you manage in DMARC Protection.
  3. Click the Unapproved tab.
  4. Click the name of an unapproved sender to review the information about that sender to make sure it is one you want to approve. Key things you should verify include:
    • What is the volume and regularity of traffic from the unapproved sender? A sender that is sending with a consistent cadence is more likely to be a legitimate sender.
    • Is there any Failure Sample data that can be used to understand the traffic? If samples are available using the Failure Samples explorer, you may be able to determine whether there is legitimate use of the unapproved sender.
  5. Click the browser's Back button.
  6. If you still want to approve the sender, click its Approve link.
  7. In the Add Sender dialog box, review the IP space (the IP addresses and netblocks). You will also see a Select Additional Domains field if there are other domains that this sender sends email on behalf of. You can select these domains to be approved also for this sender at this time if you do not want to review the sender for those domains individually.
  8. Click Add to Approved.
