What is DKIM?

How signed messages help recipients validate your sender identity.

Start with the basics

DKIM adds a cryptographic signature to outgoing email. Your provider gives you a selector and DNS record.

What to check

The selector is the first part of a name such as selector1._domainkey.example.com. It is normal for providers to use different selectors.

A safe next step

Verify the published record and check that the sending provider is actually signing messages.
