Domain Setup (UI)
Adding a domain from the dashboard walks you through a 3-step wizard — no API calls needed.
Adding a domain from the dashboard walks you through a 3-step wizard. No API calls needed — DNS records are generated and shown inline with copy buttons.
Enter your domain
Type your domain name (e.g. acme.com) and click Add Domain. eusend generates a 2048-bit RSA DKIM keypair immediately.
Add DNS records
Three records are shown with one-click copy: a DKIM TXT record, an SPF TXT record, and a DMARC TXT record. Add all three to your DNS provider.
Verify
Click "I've added these records" to trigger verification. eusend polls your DNS until the records propagate and marks the domain verified — or reports which records are missing.
DNS propagation typically takes under an hour but can take up to 48 hours. The dashboard polls automatically after you click verify — you don't need to stay on the page. The domain status updates to verified once all records are found.
DNS records added
| Record | Type | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
eusend._domainkey.acme.com | TXT | DKIM — enables cryptographic email signing |
acme.com | TXT | SPF — authorises eusend's sending servers |
_dmarc.acme.com | TXT | DMARC — policy for failed SPF/DKIM checks |
