How to add a DKIM to the cdmon DNS

DKIM stands for DomainKeys Identified Mail, and it is an email authentication mechanism that allows an organization to take responsibility for sending a message, so it can be validated by the recipient. cdmon does not provide DKIM authentication services, but it does allow you to create a DKIM entry in DNS. This means that if you use cdmon DNS services but your email service is hosted with another provider, you can create a DKIM entry in DNS using the values provided by your email provider.

 

To configure a DKIM entry, you must access DNS management directly by clicking on the DNS option from the "Basic service list" in your control panel and follow these steps.

1.- Add record

 

In the "DNS Records" list, click on New record and in the "Record type" dropdown select TXT/SPF.

 

On the next screen, in the "Redirect" section, select the option A specific subdomain.

In the "A specific subdomain" option, you must enter the 'Selector' in the "Subdomain" field, which usually has a value similar to: dkim._domainkey. In the "Value" field, you must enter the key provided by your email provider.

​

Once all values have been entered, click on Save record.

 

2.- Propagation

 

Your TXT record has now been created. You only need to wait for the changes to propagate, which may take approximately five minutes.
