Create DNS records to authenticate with MailChimp

Avatar
  • Answered
Mailchimp offers the following instructions to add DNS records to authenticate my domain:
--------------------------------------------------
DKIM: Create a CNAME record for k1._domainkey.mydomain.com with this value:
dkim.mcsv.net

SPF: Create a TXT record for mydomain.com with:
v=spf1 include:servers.mcsv.net ?all
--------------------------------------------------
I reviewed the help entry on creating DNS records, but am not sure which values go in the name and CNAME fields in cPanel's DNS editor. Will you please let me know?

Thanks!

Hello,

Thank you for your question on creating CNAME records in cPanel. In the 'name' field, you would enter "k1._domainkey" and then place "kim.mcsv.net" in the CNAME field.

Kindest Regards,
