How to set up DMARC for CampusLogic StudentForms in Valimail

Updated over 5 months ago
SPF(supported) (dedicated subdomain)
DKIM(recommended)

This article covers the SPF and DKIM authentication processes for CampusLogic StudentForms and how they are managed in Valimail. Because this service leverages Sendgrid's email infrastructure, it requires additions to your DNS records outside of the Valimail platform. Adding CampusLogic StudentForms as an authorized sender in the Valimail platform usually requires a dedicated subdomain to be pointed to the Sendgrid infrastructure and typically the DKIM keys will be added in the Valimail platform.

Configuring DKIM authentication for your CampusLogic StudentForms emails

CampusLogic will need to configure DKIM signing specifically for the institution through our mail vendor (SendGrid) to cause DMARC to pass. Through SendGrid, we will setup 3 CNAME records (6 in total - 3 for sandbox and 3 for production) that you will need to host in your DNS:

One CNAME to point to the mail sending server

Two other CNAMEs used for DKIM keys that would be automatically rotated

Important: If you manage DKIM for your domain in Valimail, you will need to add the 2 CNAME DKIM keys on your domain's Configuration page in Valimail Enforce and the 3rd CNAME record in your DNS.

To get the process started, you can open up a ServiceNow case or email [email protected].
