BIMI record has no supported HTTPS logo URL
ShipReady found a qualifying BIMI record whose l= tag was absent or did not parse as an HTTPS URL with a host.
Why it matters
The l= value is the logo-location field ShipReady can inspect in a BIMI record. A value that is absent or fails this basic HTTPS URL check should be reviewed before relying on it for a logo deployment.
How ShipReady detects it
What it inspects
ShipReady selects a TXT value beginning with v=BIMI1 at default._bimi and parses its semicolon-separated tags.
What triggers a finding
The rule triggers when l= is absent, empty, not HTTPS, or has no URL host. It does not inspect the optional a= tag or validate the rest of the BIMI record.
What the evidence shows
The selected BIMI record did not contain an l= value that passes ShipReady's basic HTTPS URL check.
Limits of this check
ShipReady does not perform complete BIMI syntax validation, request this malformed value, inspect a logo, validate certificates, or establish mailbox-provider behavior.
How to fix it
Set the intended HTTPS logo location
Publish an l= value with the intended publicly reachable HTTPS logo URL after checking the BIMI requirements relevant to your deployment.
Review the full BIMI deployment
Use a BIMI-aware validator or provider documentation for requirements beyond ShipReady's URL-shape check.
How to verify the change
Inspect the deployed record
Query default._bimi after DNS propagation and confirm the selected l= value is the intended HTTPS URL.
Expected: The record contains the intended HTTPS logo location.
