What this means if you sell to Bankwell Bank

Bankwell Bank routes inbound mail through Proofpoint, a filtering gateway. Expect strict inbound filtering: a message from a sender whose SPF, DKIM or DMARC fails, or whose domain has little sending history, is unlikely to reach a person. Before you send, run your own domain through the email setup checker and publish a policy with the DMARC record generator. For how a bank buys, see the selling to banks playbook.
