* When processing incoming mail we advise to favor a DMARC policy over an SPF policy. Do not configure SPF rejection to go into effect early in handling, but take full advantage of the enhancements DMARC is offering. A message might still pass based on DKIM.

  * At the same time, be aware that some operaters still allow a hard fail (-all) to go into effect early in handling and skip DMARC operations.

# Introduction
 | 
			
		||||
This how-to is created by the Dutch Internet Standards Platform (the organization behind [internet.nl](https://internet.nl)) and is meant to provide practical information and guidance on explicitly configuring a parked domain not to use e-mail.

When used with a wildcard selector, setting an empty public key indicates that all previously used keys are revoked and must be considered unreliable. The owner of a domain can also use this to explicitly signal that a domain is not configured to use e-mail. See our [DKIM how-to](https://github.com/internetstandards/toolbox-wiki/blob/master/DKIM-how-to.md) for more information.
