SPF(supported)
DKIM(recommended)
This article covers the SPF and DKIM authentication processes for EntrustedMail 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 EntrustedMail emails
To setup DKIM for your EntrustedMail emails, you will need to create the following CNAME record so that the messages signed and delivered by EntrustedMail pass DKIM checks for your domain.
Record type | Label/Host field | Time To Live (TTL) | Destination/Target field |
CNAME | select-em1._domainkey | 3600 or leave the default | select-em1._domainkey.entrustedmail.net |
If you would like further help with implementing DKIM for you domain, please open a ticket to the EntrustedMail support team.
