What the result means
TLS-RPT turns transport failures into evidence
SMTP TLS reporting gives domain operators aggregate visibility into certificate, negotiation and policy failures. The validator checks that one TLSRPTv1 policy exists and that its report destinations use supported mail or HTTPS URIs.
- Single-policy validation
- Report destination checks
- Exact public TXT evidence
Diagnostic field guide
Use the evidence, not the guess.
Three practical ways to use this lookup, followed by the boundary the result cannot cross.
Reviewed Sep 2026Check report destinations
Review mailto or HTTPS aggregate-report URIs for basic supported syntax.
Support MTA-STS rollout
Create visibility into certificate, negotiation and policy failures reported by participating senders.
How to read the result
- Resolve _smtp._tls for the domain and identify the single TLSRPTv1 policy.
- Read every rua destination and verify that its receiving service is intentionally configured.
- Use received reports with MTA-STS evidence; DNS presence alone does not show transport success.
Common questions
Before you act on the result
Is TLS-RPT the same as MTA-STS?
No. MTA-STS publishes an inbound TLS policy. TLS-RPT publishes destinations for aggregate reports about SMTP TLS and policy failures. They are designed to work together.
Can TLS reports use mailto and HTTPS?
The standard allows aggregate report destinations expressed as mailto or HTTPS URIs. The operator still needs a service capable of receiving and processing the report format.

The internet has layers.
We keep them separate.
A nameserver identifies the DNS operator. An edge address identifies a public delivery network. An ASN identifies the organization announcing a route. None automatically proves where a hidden origin application runs.
