Check Your Email Authentication Status

Due to new email sending requirements being implemented by Google and Yahoo, follow these two steps to determine if your From Email Address and your Branded Sending Domain are compliant.

Check Your From Address DMARC

1. Go to Dmarcian
2. Enter your domain into the Inspect the Domain search bar

   1. 

      
      
3. If your DMARC is set up properly for your domain, you will see a success message.

Check Your From Address DKIM

With DKIM, administrators have two keys: a private key that the server uses to cryptographically sign all outgoing emails and a public key that recipients can use to verify that the domain’s real private key signed an email. If the signature verification using the public key is successful, the recipient knows that the secret, private key that only the sender possesses must have signed the email, so the email passes DKIM. The verification also proves that the email has not been altered in transit because if it had been, the signature would not match the content.

This is a multi-step process to implement.
