Checking SPF, DMARC, DKIM, MX, DNS, blacklists and domain & SSL expiry. A domain we haven't scanned before takes a few seconds — hang tight.

One finding blocks deliverability.
castleroadbarbecue.com has no enforceable DMARC policy, so mail that forges its domain is not blocked at the recipient.
Your domain does not have a DMARC policy set up, which means receiving mail servers have no clear instructions for what to do with messages that claim to come from your domain. This matters because it makes your domain easier to impersonate in phishing and spoofing attacks, and it also reduces your control and visibility over email delivery. The fix is to publish a DMARC record in your DNS for the domain.
_dmarc · Record type: TXT · TTL: 3600v=DMARC1; Your SPF setup is working, but it ends with a soft fail instead of a hard fail. That means mail from servers not on your approved list may still be treated as suspicious rather than being fully rejected, which is a bit less strict but still acceptable for DMARC. This matters because SPF helps prevent spoofed email from using your domain. The fix, if you want tighter protection, is to switch to the stricter fail setting only after you’re sure every legitimate sender is already covered in the SPF policy.
