Valimail Monitor
Valimail Monitor shows sending activity from an organization’s domains and whether messages pass or fail DMARC.
What Valimail Monitor is
Valimail Monitor shows sending activity from an organization’s domains and whether messages pass or fail DMARC. It identifies sending services by name and displays aligned SPF and DKIM status along with overall disposition. It can surface unidentified ISPs, open routers, and unsecured hacked servers sending as the organization. Monitor also checks whether email-sending services are ready for Google, Microsoft, and Yahoo DKIM, SPF, and DMARC requirements. Users can upload a logo to preview how BIMI could appear in desktop and mobile inboxes. The free plan includes five users and ten SPF lookups, but no API access. Monitor provides visibility into DMARC data; it does not manage DMARC policy or configure senders through SPF and DKIM. Setup requires adding Valimail’s reporting address to the domain’s DMARC rua parameter. Valimail says Monitor does not change email flow and that it will see no personally identifiable information. The web product has no trial offer, credit-card requirement, or obligation.
