Is .mq safe? The state of .mq domain security

Most .mq domains can still be impersonated in email, but the ending shifts the odds, not your own domain's grade. As of 2026-08-16.

Of 356 graded .mq domains, 59.3% earn an F — well below the 78.3% internet-wide average. 1.1% of .mq domains achieve an A or A+ — the highest protection tier.

Does .mq make a domain secure?

No — and that's the most important thing to know. A domain's grade is decided by how it is configured (SPF, DMARC, HTTPS, DNS), not by its ending. Choosing .mq doesn't protect you, and a high-F-share ending doesn't doom you: a correctly configured .mq domain earns an A while the crowd around it sits at F.

Frequently asked questions

Is .mq safe?

On average, .mq is safer than the internet average: 59.3% of its 356 graded domains score an F as of 2026-08-16, against a 78.3% global average. Most domains on every ending are exposed — the ending shifts the odds, not your own domain's grade.

How secure are .mq domains?

40.7% of .mq domains score above an F and 8.1% earn a B or better. The rest fail the basic externally observable protections, most importantly enforced SPF and DMARC, so they can be impersonated in email.

Does choosing .mq make my domain secure?

No. A domain's grade comes from how it is configured — SPF, DMARC, HTTPS, DNS — not from its ending. A well-configured domain earns an A on any ending; an unconfigured one sits at F on .mq too.

What does "grade F" mean for a .mq domain?

It fails the basic protections we can observe from outside — above all, it has no enforced SPF and DMARC, so its email can be forged and its customers targeted with convincing fakes.
