To send successful email campaigns and make sure your emails aren't blocked, your domain needs to be authenticated. DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail) authenticates your emails, by assigning a cryptographic signature to your outbound emails. This helps filter unauthorized sending sources and distinguish between real and fake emails. 

Within Mailigen you will have to follow the procedures in order to create the DKIM records needed for email authentication. Once Mailigen provides you with the records, you will need to create them in your DNS.
