To use your own domain name with Sendkit, several DNS records must be configured. These records authenticate your emails, secure your sender identity, and ensure optimal deliverability with the major email providers. The records to set up are as follows:
An SPF record
Host: {votre-domaine}
Value: v=spf1 include:spf.tipimail.com -all
A DKIM record : for DKIM, you can choose to configure a 1024-bit or 2048-bit key (recommended).
Host: mta._domainkey.{votre-domaine}
Value:"v=DKIM1;k=rsa;
p=MIGfMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUAA4GNADCBiQKBgQDh50JnspQbjA8gu9Q7togGADxpXmxSy3Q8MoMBkT16RGuMgad7eNmgS3lCrMB6ScN3EKmFbplk6aBOBJzA0NtQsTRZzBIrK61sBiAgzOn1w2sUC/GS26MslZhOiXNQFqPLDq3RUwediyyR7j29MCJXZ0rfjBDbnNgDmnmyf8LtkwIDAQAB"

An MX
Host: {votre-domaine}
Value: mx.customizedurl.com.
An A record: You can either use your own server's IP address or use the following record:
Host: {votre-domaine}
Value: 217.74.111.248
A tracking domain
Host: click.{votre-domaine} (or mail.votre-domaine or lien.votre-domine, for example)
Value: link.domaincustom.net.
Having a domain name configured on your account is essential for your emails to ensure the best possible deliverability.
Email providers are continually strengthening their requirements for sender authentication and identity. In this context, Microsoft, for example, is placing increasing importance on consistency between the sending domain, authentication mechanisms (spf,dkim), and the links included in emails.
Configuring a custom tracking domain aligns tracking links with your own domain name, thereby strengthening the trust placed in your messages and their reputation. This configuration is now essential for optimizing deliverability and reducing the risk of filtering.
That is why our platform requires the configuration of the spf, dkim, and mx records, as well as the tracking domain, before your domain can be validated.
