Keep your email messages as secure as possible using DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM), a system for verifying the signer's domain. When a DKIM digital signature is applied to a message, it is assigned a unique identifier. When the message is received, the receiving server can retrieve the unique identifier from the message's header to check for authenticity.
Creating DKIM Record for aWeber
Contact your aWeber support team to get your DKIM keys and enable DKIM authentication for your domains. aWeber’s support will hand you over a DKIM key pair that will contain:
- A DKIM public key: to be published in your public-facing DNS
- A DKIM private key: used by aWeber to sign your outgoing emails
