DKIM

What is DKIM?​

DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) is an email authentication method designed to detect forged sender addresses in email, a technique often used in phishing and email spam. DKIM allows the receiver to check that an email claimed to have come from a specific domain was indeed authorized by the owner of that domain.

Configure DKIM​

Do this for each of the domains you will use for cold emails.

  1. From the Zoho Admin Console navigate to:
  2. Domains
  3. Select the domain you want to update
  4. Select ‘Email Configuration’
  5. Select ‘DKIM’
  6. In your DNS provider (e.g. Cloudflare), within DNS configuration, add a text record with the MX information provided by Zoho e.g.:
TypeNameContent
TXTzmail._domainkeyv=DKIM1; k=rsa; p=EXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLEEXAMPLE
