After you have verified the trusted email domain, you can set up DKIM (DomainKeys
Identified Mail). DKIM authenticates email messages and prevents forged sender
addresses.
-
Go to .
-
For the appropriate email domain name entry, click DKIM
Setup.
-
Copy the email trust records.
Note:
If you see multiple regions listed, such as EU-WEST-1, US-EAST-1,
US-WEST-1, you should copy the CNAME records for all regions. This is
required for SES (Simple Email Service) to sign messages, and can also
allow messages to be sent from another region if there is a fault in the
primary region.
-
Go to your DNS manager, and update it with these copied DKIM entries. Ensure
that you add the records as CNAME records, not TXT records.
-
Return to the DKIM Setup screen and click
Verify.
- A green check mark indicates that the verification check completed successfully.
- A yellow exclamation point indicates that the verification check did not succeed. In this
case, we recommend that you wait one hour and try again. Complete DNS
propagation can take up to 24 hours.
