Findings
-
mx redundancy
Only one mail exchanger is published, so there is no failover.
smtp.google.com
Fix: Add a secondary MX at a higher priority number.
-
spf
SPF ends in ~all (softfail); unauthorised mail is marked rather than rejected.
v=spf1 include:sendgrid.com._nspf.vali.email include:%{i}._ip.%{h}._ehlo.%{d}._spf.vali.email include:stspg-customer.com ip4:167.89.60.95 ip4:50.31.36.205 ~allFix: Move to -all once you have confirmed all senders are listed.
-
mta sts
No MTA-STS policy, so inbound mail can be downgraded to an unencrypted connection.
Fix: Publish _mta-sts.sendgrid.com and host a policy at https://mta-sts.sendgrid.com/.well-known/mta-sts.txt.
-
mx
Mail is handled by Google Workspace.
0 smtp.google.com
-
