Updated over a week ago
SPF(supported)
DKIM(recommended)

This article covers the SPF and DKIM authentication processes for SendPulse and how they are managed in Valimail. While only one of the two authentication methods is required for an email to pass DMARC, our recommendation is to configure both whenever possible.

Configuring DKIM authentication for your SendPulse emails

1. Go to the SMTP Settings -> Sending Domains tab. Click Create DKIM next to the domain you want to authenticate.
