Hello Alessandro,

For DMARC policy reject, the failed status will not be visible in the MUA, 
because the mail will not reach the
recipient.  Likewise for the policy quarantine, because this policy means “do 
not deliver” (and do not reject, but do
something different).

So if the DMARC evaluation status for policies Quarantine or Reject is shown, 
it will be PASS.

For policy None, I doubt that showing the authentication status has added value.

So if the MUA shows the status for DMARC it will be PASS.  When will showing 
the DMARC status to the user have added
value for her?

For SPF status... you know that redirects, if the MUA shows “failed SPF”, what 
shall the user conclude?

For DKIM evalution, that was not covered by the DMARC policy above, you suggest 
that the MUA shows "DOMAIN: FAIL/PASS". 
If it passes, then it is good.  But what shall be the conclusion made by the 
user, if the DKIM for a domain shows FAIL
(or missing DKIM-Signature header)? 

Regards
