BIMI Reporting

BIMI Reporting is a reporting feature within PowerDMARC that analyzes your DMARC Aggregate (RUA) report data to validate whether your brand logo is successfully displaying in recipients' inboxes. Rather than relying on assumptions or manual checks, it surfaces real receiver feedback on BIMI evaluation — giving you visibility into logo display rates, certificate validity, and the exact sending sources where BIMI is passing or failing.

Why this matters: BIMI implementation does not guarantee logo display. Many factors — DMARC alignment, certificate type, mailbox provider support — all affect whether your logo actually appears. BIMI Reporting closes that visibility gap.

Accessing BIMI Reporting

Navigate to Reporting > BIMI Reporting in the left-hand sidebar.

NOTE

BIMI Reporting is currently in Beta.

Filtering Your Data

At the top of the page, use the following controls to scope your view:

  • Domain — Select the domain you want to analyze from the dropdown. You can also filter by Domain Group using the top-right selector.

  • Date — Choose a date range for the reporting period. Use the calendar icon to set custom ranges.

Filters — Click the Filters button to apply additional filters to the dataset.

Dashboard Metrics

Once your filters are applied, the top section displays four summary metrics for the selected domain and period:

Metric

Description

Total Volume

Total number of email messages captured in DMARC aggregate reports for the period.

DMARC Compliance

Percentage of messages that passed DMARC evaluation.

BIMI Pass Rate

Percentage of messages that passed BIMI evaluation (DMARC-compliant + valid BIMI record + valid certificate).

Logo Display Rate

Percentage of messages where the brand logo was confirmed as displayed in the recipient's mailbox.

Deliverability & BIMI Adoption Chart

The Deliverability & BIMI Adoption chart plots daily message volume split across three categories:

  • Logo Displayed — Messages where the BIMI logo was confirmed as displayed.

  • Logo Not Displayed — Messages that were delivered but where the logo did not display (e.g. missing certificate, unsupported mailbox provider, DMARC non-compliance).

  • No Data — No available data was parsed from the reports

Use this chart to track the impact of BIMI changes over time and identify spikes in logo display failures.

BIMI Certificate Overview

The BIMI Certificate Overview donut chart breaks down the certificate types associated with messages in your reporting period:

Certificate Type

Description

VMC Certificate

Verified Mark Certificate — issued by an accredited CA, required by most major mailbox providers for logo display.

CMC Certificate

Common Mark Certificate — an alternative certificate type accepted by some providers.

No Certificate

Messages sent without any BIMI certificate attached.

Invalid Certificate

A certificate was present but failed validation.

No Data

No certificate information available in the aggregate report.

Report Overview (Detailed Breakdown)

Scroll below the charts to access the Report Overview table. This provides a per-sending-source breakdown of BIMI performance. The table is hierarchical and expandable at three levels:

Level 1 — Reporting Organization

The top level groups results by the mailbox provider reporting the data (e.g. google.com, outlook.com).

Column

Description

Reporting Organization

The mailbox provider that submitted the aggregate report.

Volume

Total message volume reported by this organization.

DMARC Compliant

Pass/fail count and percentage for DMARC evaluation.

BIMI Compliant

Percentage of messages that passed BIMI checks.

BIMI Supported

Whether this reporting organization supports BIMI evaluation.

Logo Displayed

Percentage of messages where logo display was confirmed.

Level 2 — Sending Hostname & IP

Click the expand arrow on any reporting organization to drill down into the individual sending hostnames and sender IPs contributing to that volume. The same DMARC, BIMI, and logo display metrics apply at this level.

Level 3 — Per-Date Breakdown by "From" Domain

Expand any sending hostname row to see a daily breakdown with additional detail:

Column

Description

"From" Domain

The RFC5322 From domain on the message.

Total Volume

Messages sent from this domain on this date.

Date

The reporting date.

DMARC Compliant

Pass/Fail indicator.

BIMI Compliant

Pass/Fail indicator.

Cert Type

Certificate type used (VMC, CMC, or none).

Logo Displayed

Whether the logo displayed.

Failure Reason

Reason for BIMI failure, if applicable. Displays N/A when no failure occurred.

Use the pagination controls at the bottom of each expanded section to navigate through results. Click Export CSV in the top-right of the table to download the full dataset.

How BIMI Reporting Determines Logo Display

BIMI Reporting evaluates logo display eligibility based on the following conditions, all of which must be met:

  1. The message is DMARC compliant (SPF or DKIM aligned pass).

  2. A valid BIMI DNS record is published for the sending domain.

  3. A supported certificate type (VMC or CMC) is attached and valid.

  4. The receiving mailbox provider supports BIMI evaluation.

If any one of these conditions fails, the logo will not display 

NOTE

Not all mailbox providers report BIMI evaluation results back in their aggregate reports. Where evaluation data is not returned, the message will appear under No Data in the chart and table.
