What is a DKIM record?


A DKIM record is actually a specific type of TXT record to verify that the messages’ content are trustworthy, meaning that they weren’t changed from the moment the message left the initial mail server.


How do I setup a DKIM record?


Setting up a DKIM record at your domain registrar/DNS provider (for your domain name) is a very simple process that can be done in under a minute!
DKIM is unique to each domain.


General Instructions:


Host / Name:  default._domainkey 
TXT value: v=DKIM1; k=rsa; p=MIGfM...long hash...DAQAB   (Use your own key from your Chillimail DKIM panel!)
Record type: TXT 
TTL: 1800  (in seconds)

 

To check for propagation (after adding the records) you can use
