DKIM authentication helps encrypt email messages with a private key that is checked against a public key in the sender’s DNS to verify email sources. 

Steps to Setup DKIM for Mandrill 


  • First off you need to add your domain to mandrill 

  • Open your mandrill account and go to Settings > Domains

  • Enter your domain name and click on Add button



After adding your domain, for setting up DKIM for mandrill click on “View DKIM Settings”, you will find the DKIM DNS record that you need to publish in your domain’s DNS, with the following values: 


Namemandrill._domainkey.yourdomain.com


Record Value


v=DKIM1; k=rsa; p= (your unique key generated for your domain) 



After publishing the TXT record, wait up to 24 hours to allow your DNS to process these changes. Finally, click on the Test DNS Settings button in your DNS management console and check for a verification mark against your record.
