The Enforcement Status Report provides a domain-level view of how DMARC enforcement is applied across your domains. It helps you understand which domains are protected, if they've been configured to manage DMARC in Valimail, how long they’ve been in a given state, and how successfully email is being authenticated and delivered.
Accessing the Enforcement Status Report
Log in to Valimail Enforce
Navigate to Reports
Select Enforcement Status
Filters
You can refine the data using the following filters:
Enforcement Status

Sending Status
Filter based on whether a domain is configured in Valimail as actively sending email, reporting only, or blocked.
Historical Enforcement Status

Report Columns Explained
Domain
The domain being evaluated for enforcement and authentication. All the domains on the account will be listed in this column.
Portfolios
The portfolio(s) the domain belongs to. The Portfolios feature is exclusive to the Enterprise tier of Enforce.
Current Enforcement Status
The domain’s current DMARC enforcement state:
Sending with Enforcement – DMARC record is pointed to Valimail and is enforced (quarantine or reject).
Not Configured – DMARC record is not managed in Valimail.
Blocked – DMARC record is pointed to Valimail, and the sending status in Enforce is set to Blocked. Email from this domain is blocked.
Days in Status
Number of days the domain has remained in its current enforcement state.
Status Updated
Date when the enforcement status last changed.
Sending Status
Shows the sending status configured in Enforce for every domain.
Active – Domain is sending email
Reporting Only – DMARC monitoring without enforcement
Blocked – Sending is disabled
Emails Processed
Total number of emails processed for the domain during the selected time range.

Common Use Cases
Track DMARC enforcement progress across domains
Identify domains with high authentication failure rates
Monitor blocked domains to confirm expected behavior
Audit long-standing enforcement states
Best Practices
Investigate domains with high failure percentages for SPF or DKIM alignment issues
A long Days in Status value can be helpful to confirm stability or flag forgotten configurations.
