Understanding Email Authentication (DKIM, SPF, DMARC) with Dropals Hosting

< 1 min read

Overview:
Email authentication methods like DKIM, SPF, and DMARC help ensure that your emails are not flagged as spam and protect against email spoofing.

Step-by-Step Guide:

  1. Log into cPanel:
    • Open your web browser and go to http://yourdomain.com/cpanel.
    • Log in using your cPanel credentials provided by Dropals.
  2. Navigate to Email Deliverability:
    • In the “Email” section, click on “Email Deliverability.”
  3. DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail):
    • Ensure DKIM is enabled. It helps verify that the email content has not been altered.
  4. SPF (Sender Policy Framework):
    • Ensure SPF is enabled. It specifies which mail servers are allowed to send email on behalf of your domain.
  5. DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance):
    • Configure DMARC by adding a DMARC record to your DNS settings. This policy helps receive reports on email authentication and provides instructions for handling unauthenticated emails.
  6. Verify Settings:
    • Use the “Check” button to verify that your email authentication settings are correctly configured.

By setting up DKIM, SPF, and DMARC, you can improve your email deliverability and protect against spoofing. For further assistance, Dropals support is available to help.
