No BIMI record, so inboxes show no logo for your mail

Why it matters. BIMI shows your logo in supporting inboxes, which lifts recognition and trust. It needs DMARC at quarantine or reject first, and Gmail and Apple Mail also need a Verified Mark Certificate (VMC) or Common Mark Certificate (CMC).

How to fix it.
  1. Reach p=quarantine or p=reject first, then publish default._bimi.yourdomain with v=BIMI1; l=https URL of an SVG Tiny PS logo.
