Aweber and DMARC
I'm using the email my-name [at] my-domain.com as the "from" address, when sending email via Aweber.
I have added a DMARC record to the domain "my-domain.com", because I also send email from it, without using Aweber, and the domain needs to be authenticated, so the messages don't end up in the recipient's spam folder.
I have also added the following in my domain's SPF record:
include:send.aweber.com.
I have created a message and sent a test to a gmail address of mine. For now, it did end up in the inbox. But when I receive the email and view the "original message" in Gmail, it says:
"DMARC: 'FAIL'".
This is no surprise, because the domains Aweber.com and my-domain.com obviously have different DMARCs.
My question: Do you think this is a problem? Is there something you would change in my set up?
AWeber doesn't require their customers to make any DMARC changes, so they don't have a comment on this.
But Gmail has many restrictions (and constantly adds more) and I don't want my emails to gmail email addresses to end up in the spam folder.
What do you think?
Thanks in advance!
