Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that DMARC is an email authentication protocol that tells receiving servers how to handle spoofed messages?

Yes. A reference article states DMARC is an email authentication protocol and that its published record instructions let receiving servers deliver, quarantine or reject mail that fails authentication, which is how spoofed messages are handled. Other sources confirm DMARC is a domain-level email authentication mechanism but do not detail the receiver-handling instructions.
