<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Domain-based Messaging and Reporting Compliance (DMARC) was implemented at NSF in October 2018. DMARC is a series of email authentication and reporting checks that improve email security within Federal agencies by improving email fraud
 defenses. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>This Department of Homeland Security (DHS) required protocol may result in some external email recipients not receiving some NSF email if organization email is not configured to meet DMARC requirements or if people are auto-forwarding
 email to another account, such as a personal email account.</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">DMARC enables organizations like NSF to verify that email was sent from a trusted source rather than from bad actors such as spammers, hackers or phishers. Since NSF's implementation of DMARC, NSF has observed that some external organizations
 use email routing<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">practices such as email auto-forwarding from organization to personal email accounts or using third-party email distribution services (e.g., Constant Contact, GovDelivery, Amazon SES) that cause messages to be blocked from distribution
 because they are flagged as potentially fraudulent by DMARC security checks. This means some recipients of NSF email may not be receiving some important NSF communications related to research funding actions, deadlines, and/or other important messages. 
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a name="_Hlk9437844">NSF, as all other federal agencies, is required to implement this standard.  In response, some universities communicated to their staff about DMARC and specifically about not auto-forwarding email.  (Just a few of
