Well, you can guard against too stringent settings by doing a few
things. (I'm not sure you could actually misconfigure DMARC, unless
you do something like enter the wrong email address to receive
reports.)
You basically want to start running DMARC in monitor mode, which means
it doesn't actually take any action on emails (like quarantining or
rejecting). And you can have either individual reports or a summary
aggregate report (recommended) sent to you so you can see who's having
problems with your SPF/DKIM records, who's trying to send on your
behalf, etc.
A monitor mode DMARC record *might* look something like this:
"v=DMARC1;p=none;rua=mailto:[email protected]";
The "p=" part is what tells DMARC the policy to enact; "none" equates
to monitor mode. And the "rua=" is the email address to send
aggregate reports to. Once you have the aggregate reports, all you
have to do is decipher the XML reports Google, Hotmail, and others
send you.
Cheers.

You guys make it sound easy, and it probably is. So what happens if
one makes a mistake and configures the Dmarc incorrectly? Newsletters
are bounced?

Hi, Keith.
I’m not exactly sure what you’re asking for. But implementing DMARC
(with SPF and DKIM, of course) is a pretty straightforward process.
Are you only talking about deciphering the DMARC reports that mail
services send? Because even that isn’t a huge deal.
I’ve written a script before that parses the XML reports, pulls out
the failure reports and presents the information in an easier to
digest format. (Script I wrote was in PowerShell, but I reckon it
wouldn’t be difficult to do in any language of preference.) Can’t
imagine you’d actually need to hire someone specifically for this
task; there’s not really that much to it.
Cheers.

Hello!!
Hey I have been tasked with configuring dmarc. I only have a vague
idea what it does and that boils down to stopping fraudulent emails.
I receive 2 or 3 reports a day and lack the time and understanding to
decipher them.
It is my understanding there are "experts" and "software" that can
help.
Anyone know of an expert? If so I would like to talk with them about
potentially being hired to do this project.
Thank you so much in advance!!
Keith
