MTA-STS tells other mail servers to deliver to you only over verified TLS, and it needs two pieces: a _mta-sts TXT record in DNS and a policy file served over HTTPS at mta-sts.yourdomain. On AWS, the policy file is commonly hosted with Amazon S3 behind CloudFront with a certificate from AWS Certificate Manager, so it is always reachable on the exact hostname receivers expect.
The policy has to list your real MX hosts, and getting the mode, hostnames or certificate wrong can delay mail, so start in testing mode and move to enforce once reports look clean. The EmailAuth AI Agent reads your live MX and MTA-STS records, drafts the policy file for you, and checks it once it is published.
