With NCSC planning to end support for Mail Check DMARC reporting by the end of the month, I'm curious about how businesses across the UK are preparing for this transition. Are you switching to a different provider, or are you handling reporting in-house?

One straightforward approach is to change your DMARC reporting address to one that you control. Why pay someone else when you can create a simple script or spreadsheet to manage it yourself?
Have you guys checked out Uriports? It's free and offers solid functionality for DMARC reporting.
The transition is basically about updating the rua= address in your DMARC record to point to a new provider. Just make sure to add the new address alongside the old one temporarily; DMARC supports multiple addresses. Once you're sure reports are coming in from the new setup, you can safely remove the old one. If you're dealing with multiple domains, try testing this process with just one domain first.
We're staying with Mimecast and have already set up their checker. It seems reliable enough for us to stick with during this change. What about you guys, any feedback on that?
I believe Valimail still has a free tier available if you're looking for an alternative provider.
I haven't used Mimecast in a while since I switched jobs. Is their spam filter still top-notch like it was years ago? Back then, it was unbeatable compared to other services.
