Private Key
You must enter the private key in your DKIM signer. It must be kept secret, as anyone with access to it can stamp tokens pretending to be you
••••••••••••••••••
Public Key
The public key is the original raw 'X509' format. It's not usable in DNS directly, but it might be useful for something else.
Subdomain
Publish the generated record text on this DNS host. Format: [selector]._domainkey.[yourdomain.com] — never use @ in DNS records.
DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) is a method for email senders to digitally sign email messages in a way that can be verified by email receivers. This allows receivers to verify that the message truly came from the sender, and has not been tampered with. DKIM is intended to address some of the flaws in the existing email system, such as spoofing, phishing, and message tampering.
Steps to Configure DKIM for iVvy
- Sign in to your iVvy account
- Select Global Settings > Marketing > Authorized Domains from the menu.
- Select Add Domain.
- To add it, type your domain name and select Save.
- Select your domain now, then select Verify.
- iVvy will generate CNAME entries for you to publish on your DNS when you click Verify. In order to protect your email, iVvy will sign all of your outgoing messages with the DKIM signature once you have successfully published the entries in your DNS and accessed it.
