DMARC DNS setup is the process of adding a DMARC record to your domain name system (DNS) provider. A DMARC record is a text file that contains information about your email authentication policy and preferences. It helps you protect your domain from spoofing, phishing, and spam by telling the recipients how to handle emails that fail SPF and/or DKIM verification.
To add a DMARC record to your DNS provider, you need to follow these steps:
- Log in to your DNS provider’s website and find the option to manage or configure your DNS settings.
- Select the domain name that you want to add the DMARC record to and look for the option to add a new record.
- Choose the record type as TXT and enter the name as _dmarc.
- Enter the value of your DMARC record, which should include the version, policy, and reporting tags. You can use a DMARC record generator tool to create your DMARC record value based on your preferences. For example, a basic DMARC record value could look like this:
v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:[email protected]; - Save your changes and verify that your DMARC record is published correctly. You can use a DMARC record checker tool to do this.
