How do I set up DKIM and SPF for Email Delivery?

You can do this with any ONTRAPORT account level!
To view complete step by step instructions, reference
our Knowledge Base here.

WARNING: If you are not familiar with making modifications to your DNS
settings we strongly recommend hiring a qualified web developer to complete
this process as you can permanently lose all content, email service, etc. on
that domain if other settings are inadvertently changed.

1. Email abuse@ontraport.com and let our postmasters know what
   domains you will be adding DKIM records to so they can make the
   necessary changes on their end.
2. Log into the DNS manager of your domain registrar and add the following two records:
3. Record 1: DKIM
4. Type: TXT
5. Name (Selector): ontramail._domainkey
6. Value: "v=DKIM1;k=rsa;
   p=MIGfMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUAA4GNADCBiQKBgQDiHV+GFJUPAt
   mIh26KHbn5PZXEFm3XK2XjEs4HFOSDZthULWyGvI5CqfYmNm7LFTW
   C3v5m6CtbLeNgDu0RwTw+94TSryL4ZYC6PESaJCHurmpREZTh+UFlLliR
   ip3reqrNfoYpkiWa6fgu9vbyZob+W3d+leBP/p0mmOXeJiOjKwIDAQAB;"
7. Record 2: SPF
8. Type: TXT
9. Name (selector): Blank or @ (the root domain)
10. Value: "v=spf1 include:_spf-moon-ray.ontramail.com include:_spf-ontramail.ontramail.com ~all"

Note: When you paste the values remove any spaces that your copy/paste operation has added. Due to the limitations of this forum we cannot provide the strings in a format that will not be modified by other, external programs.

If you are sending email from other services using this domain you will need to add the mailing IPs of those other services in your SPF record as well. These can be added as new "ip4:" items in the value. As well, add any other mailing domains that your mail might come from in an "include:example.com" item.

To set this up you MUST be on ONTRAPORT, if you are a SendPepper or an
Office Autopilot customer and waiting to be migrated you will not be able to
implement this until your account has been migrated. (If you do not know what
that means it does not apply to you.)

The change will only be final once you have hosted the necessary DNS records
and our postmasters have confirmed that everything is in place and working
correctly.

This change will also remove the “via ontramail.com” message for “@gmail.com”
inboxes. Google apps users will still see this message.
