   You need to have DKIM in place too. If you don't have both, your emails   
   will be rejected. And you have to find out if your IPs are listed at   
   things like spamhaus. The website refusing your emails only because they   
   are listed on spamhaus and the like are just shit but you can't avoid   
   it and you have to take care of it.   
      
   I have nothing against spamhause and the like but they are poorly used   
   by incompetent morons who will refuse your mails because they haven't   
   any clue about the basis of their work.

   You don't need to care about it. When gmail sends you a DMARC report,   
   it's to tell you one of his servers is trying to spoof your emails. You   
   can't do anything about it and you don't need to care about it. You just   
   need to have DMARC configured to have your emails accepted, but it's   
   only a shitty stupid and useless protocol.   
      
   If SPF and DKIM are good ways to prove the validity of your emails,   
   DMARC is just stupid garbage.   
      
   You have to know that yahoo and google are the biggest spammers on earth   
   and they'll do all they can to keep their monopole. So, you'll have to   
   comply by their rules even if they are stupid.
