  1. Do you have a strategy for securing e-mail?
  2. Is your e-mail server capable of SMTP/TLS in at least opportunistic mode?
  3. Can you support a request for forced SMTP/TLS?
  4. Have you updated your DNS to include your SPF records?
  5. Have you trained your people that sending Internet e-mail is like sending a postcard?
  6. Are you alerting your e-mail recipients when an external e-mail is not secure?
  7. Are you feeding SPF and SMTP/TLS attributes into your spam calculations?
  8. When using an (e-mail) marketing company and they spoof your e-mail domain – do you ensure the SPF is OK?
  9. Do you have processes to ensure content is secured when sending via the Internet?
  10. Does your DNS provider support the latest SPF standard?
