Might be slightly off topic but I've been running into more delivery

Marc,
This probably has more to do with DKIM than DMARC?
Either way... you're not willing to jump (or haven't yet jumped) though
the hoops that the largest ISPs/hosters want us all to jump through...
meanwhile... so many of them (and for many many years) have sent such
high volumes AND high percentages of outbound spam to all of our SMTPs -
to such an extent that you and I would be out of business if our SMTP
outbound traffic did that for just one week.
I sort of wish they (or many of them... "if the shoe fits...") would
clean up their own act FIRST - get the basics done FIRST - before
imposing new standards on the rest of us.
I'm in the same boat - I'm now having to set aside dozens of hours to
get all various domains updated to DKIM so that they'll have more
success sending to a certain large/famous hoster - who has sent my
server a shitload of spam over the past several years (not just
volume-wise - but percentage-wise... I'd be run out of town if I did that)
