DMARC config in Zone Editor
Completed
Having Email Authentication is very useful.
There should be an option to enable DKIM and SPF on all existing accounts (not just individually), and an option to personalize the default SPF, specifically to be able to provide an include of the server domain or custom domain, that has the valid global IPs enabled.
At the same time, a DMARC record should/could be created with a simple config of the policy and reporting address as needed.
I like this idea 
cPanel, WebHost Manager and WHM are registered trademarks of cPanel, L.L.C. for providing its computer software that facilitates the management and configuration of Internet web servers.
This is now in a public build of version 64, 64.0.1, which is in the CURRENT tier. Update to version 64 now to take a look!

This congfiguration is easy to implement into you bind records, so don't need wait for this feature.

It will need a WHM template files because there is more to it than a TXT record. See http://support.google.com/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2466580

It's "easy" to setup a LAMP stack. It's "easy" to create a virtual host. It's "easy" to just setup some SPF records with a TXT record.
If we didn't do anything because it's "easy" to do by hand cPanel wouldn't exist.
Wait until every user you have is getting rejects from Comcast and AOL for lack of a DMARC policy and you have 5,000 open support tickets asking you to "easily" setup DMARC for 20,000 domains and tell me it's "easy"
With more & more domains insisting on a DMARC policy this needs to be a simple one-click (or three) for cPanel so users can do it themselves. With a policy to enable with a new sign up.

Starting to get MORE and MORE bounced emails from our clients without DMARC entries in the DNS. We desperately need this feature.

It will be nice, gmail evry day more restrict and regular email goes in the spam folder... DMARC could help...

Can't agree more.
Every knows that most config is just text files but Cpanel is great for the time it saves.
If this is getting required more often, Cpanel needs to address this ASAP.
If host admins like we didn't want to save time and effort, we wouldn't need Cpanel at all.

From what I have read it makes alot of sense to support dmarc with comes in addition to spf and dkim. All 3 seem complementry.

i would expand on this request and ask that support for DMARC checking via exim be supported.

Being able to check dmarc on inbound email is essential for the near feature.
Adding the ability to send out your own reports to domains being used for spam would help.
Setting up dmarc on cpanel account creation is as follow:
DNS Functions -> Edit Zone Templates -> standardvirtualftp ->
_dmarc.%domain%. IN TXT "v=DMARC1; p=none; sp=none; adkim=r; aspf=r; rua=mailto:abuse@yourdomain.com; ruf=mailto:abuse@yourdomain.com; rf=afrf; pct=100; fo=1; ri=84600”
for this to work, you need to create a catch all for the RUA and RUF emails.
This record needs to go into yourdomain.com zone.
*._report._dmarc.yourdomain.com IN TXT "v=DMARC1"
With the settings above it will use extremely relaxed rules so you can monitor the domain with out setting restrictions. If you sign all your emails using DKIM and SPF is setup 100% then you can move the strings to reject/quarantine.
I highly recommend dmarcian.com for tools and RUA/RUF data processing. (non sponsored comment :P)

Having to manually add DMARC records to DNS is not ideal. A tool to handle base config along-side domain SPF/DKIM management would be a big help.

DMARC must be implemented by cPanel/WHM asap.

It will be nice to create an email as dmarc@user.com just for report when from cpanel is created the record.
So when we enable dmarc for example is created for example a record _dmarc.user.com IN TXT "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=dmarc@user.com" and at same time is created email dmarc@user.com

I agree this feature should be built-in, as Youssef B also posts Google is the first to move to strict DMARC usage. As a response to this news from Google we have moved all our users to DMARC by default creating the records in all DNS-zones with default address postmaster@domain.tld and also updated the DNS template files to use it when a new account is created.
A simple script could be used to put in a TXT record: _dmarc.%domain%. IN TXT "v=DMARC1; p=reject; aspf=r; rua=mailto:postmaster@%domain%"
However not all account use postmaster@domain.tld and not all servers use system account by default when unroutable email is send. This raises the issue to create email account AND/OR search email account to use, for example look for: postmaster, abuse, admin, webmaster. And if none of these accounts are found create postmaster and forwarder abuse. All accounts should have postmaster and abuse (forwarder or not) anyway to be compliant with email systems these days.

I personally agrees on this. its more than a great idea as the emails originated from the dmarc can be forwarded to user account and a dashboard with dmarc report reviews can also add one of 100 best option.
Its gonna give huge benefits for shared hosting environments as this will enable server admins to monitor and suspend any user generating spam emails from server resources or for any other measurements.

we have found both Google and Microsoft live.com are now blocking mails without DMARC records...
while we can add in txt records to dns manually a way to add these in in bulk would be very usefull and urgently required

You can include the dmarc records in you're zone template files, and if you want to apply it in bulk you can reset the domain (Reset a DNS Zone menu in whm)
*warning - this will reset the zone with default settings found in zone templates. I recommend setting all 3 zone templates files to the same settings just in case.
This will also take affect when creating new accounts.
If you want to deal with DMARC you'll need a way to handle the providers (gmail / live) reports.
You can receive them on a normal email with out any kind of processing or use a 3rd party like dmarcian.com
Also you'll most of the time need to join the Junk Mail Partner Program with most providers and send them you're IP's and sign contract but due to the new requirements the providers are doing it might not be necessary.

DMARC records are becoming more and more important these days. It does not seem to be difficult to add a record manually, as it is just adding a DNS record, similar to SPF. An additional interface for Mail -> Authentication to help clients set up DMARC would be very helpful.

I just add _dmarc IN TXT "v=DMARC1; p=reject; rua=mailto:dmarc@mydomain.com;" to my Zone Templates :)

Here are all the options in one line.
_dmarc.domain.tld.3600INTXT"v=DMARC1\; p=none\; sp=none\; adkim=r\; aspf=r\; rua=mailto:rua@domain.tld\; ruf=mailto:ruf@domain.tld\; rf=afrf\; pct=100\; fo=1\; ri=3600"
This will force process of 100% of mails and report back. This is the safest setting until you receive reports and process them properly. This is especially important if you use 3rd party providers and they mascarade your domain. AKA Paypal / OpenSRS / Mandrill / Sendgrid etc.

The template method is what I have been using on my dedicated server, however a page in cPanel would be helpful for people on shared hosting, so they would be able to configure their own records easily, and have less chance of messing them up. I see this often in both cPanel and Plesk when doing my day to day work.

In the meantime, I do recommend checking out the article from our partner InMotion Hosting.

I followed this guide and was able to get this working in about 3 minutes.
Please give us feedback about what a UI would look like that would help users establish their dmarc record.

This has now moved into active development! We're currently hoping to see this added to the new Zone Editor in version 64, but we're much too early in the process to be sure. I'll be back to let you all know when this enters a public EDGE build.

Nice. Should have a ? by the Percentage with an explanation (I guess for most of them, that would be nice. For reporting interval, is it more useful to have seconds, minutes, or hours?

Shouldn't dmark be in the e-mail authentication section along with SPF and DKIM ?

This is a must and it's very easy to implement. It will also be a good idea to include a little paragraph explaining how to use it efficiently.

@Travis thats great, love the setup.
@Travis thats great, love the setup.
Travis please incorporate an option to default on creation of dmarc, dkim & spf when adding account. I think the option already exists for the later two. The later requires an option to enable dmarc for all, some and/or no existing accounts. Manually adding this to existing accounts on multiple servers one domain at a time would be very time consuming.
