Research

Can They Email As Me? periodically publishes aggregate, de-identified research on email authentication adoption across Australian organisations — never a directory of individual domains and their weaknesses.

Snapshot as of 2026-08-08 20:44 UTC (3 hours ago) · refreshed every few hours, not live · counts each distinct domain once, using its most recent completed check.

Domains checked

8

Distinct domains with at least one completed check.

Publish an SPF record

75%

6 of 8 domains.

Publish a DMARC record

75%

6 of 8 domains.

DMARC set to enforce

63%

Policy is quarantine or reject, not just monitoring (p=none).

Detectable DKIM signing

0%

Best-effort only — DKIM selectors aren't discoverable without sending mail, so this understates real adoption.

SPF + enforcing DMARC together

63%

The combination that meaningfully blocks email spoofing of the domain.

These figures come from domains people have voluntarily checked with this tool — not a random or representative sample of Australian organisations — so they describe this tool's userbase, not the whole economy.

A future in-depth study — with methodology, limitations and versioned data files — will also be linked from this page once published.
