SPF(supported)
DKIM(recommended)
This article covers the SPF and DKIM authentication processes for MailRoute 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 MailRoute emails
Set up the following DNS records for each of your domains so that your email will pass DKIM checks:
Hostname DNS Entry | Type | Value |
mr01._domainkey | CNAME | mr01.dkim.mailroute.net |
mr02._domainkey | CNAME | mr02.dkim.mailroute.net |
mr03._domainkey | CNAME | mr03.dkim.mailroute.net |
After you add the 3 DKIM records, please contact MailRoute support and make sure they are verified/validated on their end.
