This article covers the SPF and DKIM authentication processes for Zoho Marketing Automation 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 Zoho Marketing Automation emails

  1. Add your sender domain.

  2. Copy the SPF and DKIM TXT records from your Zoho Marketing Automation account.

  3. Add the SPF and DKIM TXT records to the DNS server.

  4. Authenticate your domain in your Zoho Marketing Automation account after adding the SPF and DKIM TXT records to the DNS server.

Let's dive deep and learn more setting up SPF and DKIM TXT records.

  5. Enter the email address [email protected].
