Deliver Byline Email with airSlate SignNow

Spread out email record

Hello there! This is Ashley, a technical writer with the documentation team at cPanel, the hosting platform of choice. I'm going to show you how to use our Email Deliverability interface. This was previously our Authentication interface, but we renamed this to more clearly describe its purpose and functionality. We've also made some changes that make it much easier to manage your domains' DKIM, SPF, and reverse DNS records. But what are these records and what purpose do they serve a domain? DKIM, or Domain Keys Identified Mail, verifies the sender and the integrity of a message. SPF, or Sender Policy Framework, verifies that the message your domain sends originated from a listed server. Reverse DNS, or PTR records, are DNS records that resolve an IP address to a domain or hostname. The system uses PTR records to perform a reverse DNS lookup to retrieve the associated domain or host name. When you properly configure your records, it improves the chances that your email is not treated as spam by other servers. Why don't we check out that new Email Deliverability interface? First, let's login to our cPanel account. The cPanel interface will appear. On our cPanel interface, let's select Email Deliverability from the Email section. The Email Deliverability interface will appear. Here we can view the current status of our domains DKIM, SPF, and Reverse DNS records. The Domain column lists all of our domains. The Main Domain label here identifies that this was the domain that our hosting provider used to create our account. The Email Deliverability status column displays the status of each domains DKIM, SPF and Reverse DNS records, whether valid or invalid. When our records are properly configured, the system displays a valid status message. When there is a problem with the record, the system will display it here. For example, our main domain currently has some record issues that require our attention. The final column here provides the repair and manage options for our domains. Let's click Repair. The system displays the Repair interface. This feature lets us quickly address any problems with our domain's records. It allows the system to repair a domain's invalid records with its recommended changes. Note that this option is unavailable if the system does not control the domain's DNS records. In that case you'll have to contact the person responsible for that domain's nameservers and ask them to update the records for you. We can review the system's recommendations for any invalid records, copy information, customize the suggested SPF record, or download our private key before approving any changes. Once we click Repair, the system proceeds with checking the repaired records to ensure that the changes are valid. For now, let's click Cancel. The Manage feature lets us manage a domain's records. Why don't we check it out? Let's click Manage for our main domain. The system directs us to the Manage the Domain interface. This interface displays the status of a domain's DKIM, SPF, and Reverse DNS...
