Can someone send email as you?
What the check does, and where it stops.
Why it matters
The reports are how you learn who is sending as you. A policy with no reporting address is flying blind.
What a failure looks like
A failure is a finding in your result. The check is scored, so it can lower your score, and the Full Report gives every finding its severity and a fix. If the check cannot finish, it is recorded as unknown: it carries no penalty, and it is never a pass.
Where its limits are
A receiver can still choose not to send reports, which nothing outside can see.
