Show HN: DMARC Checker
1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 20 Feb 2024

I don’t want to take away your spotlight, because it’s a nice project you launched even though I personally am allergic to small services that makes me log in, so I do want to point out to people that https://github.com/domainaware/checkdmarc exists for quite a while. I use it a lot manually and have also integrated it in various automated tooling.
