Sending Domain
The Sending Domain feature allows you to verify the sender's email address that appears in the FROM header of your emails. By adding your verified sending domains, you can send emails on behalf of your domain, enhancing deliverability and trust with your recipients.
Domain Verification and DKIM Setup
To ensure that you own the domain and to prevent unauthorized use, you need to add specific records to your domain's DNS. Follow the steps below:
Step 1: Add DNS Records:
Add the following information to your domain's DNS records:
MX
your_unique_id.yourdomain.com
mx.***
TXT
m1._domainkey.yourdomain.com
k=rsa; t=s; p=MIGfM***
TXT
your_unique_id.yourdomain.com
v=spf1 inc***
Note: Replace your_unique_id
with the unique identifier for your DNS record.
Step 2: Verify Your Domain
Once you have added the DNS records, click the Verify Now button in eMailBase. Please note that it may take up to 2 days for the DNS update to fully propagate.
Step 3: Adding DKIM Record
You will also need to add a DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) record. This record authorizes your email, allowing any outgoing email whose FROM address matches the domain to be signed and verified by the recipient's server.
Step 4: SPF Record (if applicable)
If you are sending emails directly from your hosting server (e.g., using PHP Mail or Sendmail), you also need to include an SPF record. This record indicates to Internet Service Providers (ISPs) that you have authorized the server's IP address to send emails for your domain.
By completing these steps, you can effectively set up your sending domain, improving the deliverability and security of your email campaigns.
