Make sure your MTA-STS policy actually works

EmailMedium severity

Publishing the MTA-STS DNS record is only half of it — sending servers also fetch a policy file over HTTPS. If that file is missing or malformed, they ignore your policy entirely and mail can still be downgraded to an unencrypted connection.

A scan reports where your tenant stands on this check — pass, fail with a step-by-step fix, or not applicable if your licensing doesn’t include the feature. When Tenant Strike can’t read a setting with read-only access, it says unverified and gives you a one-command way to confirm it yourself — it never guesses.
