  • Warning: DKIM key shorter than 2048 bits

    selector1 (1024-bit), k1 (1024-bit) uses an RSA key below 2048 bits. Short keys can be factored and some receivers treat them as weak. Rotate to a 2048-bit key at your sending provider.

MTA-STSIs mail to you encrypted?No MTA-STS recordInfo
  • Info: No MTA-STS record

    No MTA-STS record at _mta-sts.ups.com. MTA-STS (RFC 8461) makes sending servers require TLS and a valid certificate when delivering to you, which blocks downgrade attacks.

    How to fix this
TLS-RPTWill you hear about failures?No TLS-RPT recordInfo
  • Info: No TLS-RPT record

    No TLS reporting record at _smtp._tls.ups.com. TLS-RPT (RFC 8460) tells senders where to send daily reports about failed encrypted deliveries to you.

    How to fix this

How to fix it

Publish the MTA-STS recordTXT

Tells sending servers that ups.com publishes an MTA-STS policy at https://mta-sts.ups.com/.well-known/mta-sts.txt. Change the id whenever the policy file changes.

TypeTXT
Name / Host
_mta-sts.ups.com

Some DNS providers want just “_mta-sts” here.

Value
v=STSv1; id=202610040213

Host the MTA-STS policy filepolicy-file

Serve this file over HTTPS with a valid certificate for mta-sts.ups.com. It lists your MX hosts and starts in testing mode; switch to mode: enforce once TLS-RPT reports show no failures.

Location

Set up a TLS report addressinstruction

Sending servers will report TLS failures when delivering to ups.com, which you need before enforcing MTA-STS. The address must accept TLS reports; a DMARC report address does not necessarily do so.

Applies to: _smtp._tls.ups.com

  1. Pick an address that will receive TLS reports: a mailbox you read (for example tls-reports@ups.com, created first) or a TLS reporting service. 2. Publish a TXT record at _smtp._tls.ups.com with the value v=TLSRPTv1; rua=mailto:<that address>.
