How to Set Up DKIM for Formdesk?

Enabling DKIM signing for your domains can help you keep your email content intact throughout the delivery process, barring threat actors from accessing and altering your emails. This helps preserve your identity and eradicate spam and phishing attacks. 

Creating DKIM Record for Formdesk

Contact your Formdesk support team to get your DKIM keys and enable DKIM authentication for your domains. Formdesk’s support will hand you over a DKIM key pair that will contain: 

  1. A DKIM public key: to be published in your public-facing DNS
  2. A DKIM private key: used by Formdesk to sign your outgoing emails, that is to be uploaded on their web server

Alternatively, if you are using your own servers to send emails instead of Formdesk’s, you can generate your DKIM key pair using our free DKIM record generator tool.  


To enable DKIM for Formdesk, please add the following CNAME record in your DNS

 

Type: CNAME

Name: formdesk._domainkey.yourdomain.com

Value: dkim.formdesk.com

TTL: Standard

Selector: formdesk


Save changes to your record and wait for 48-72 hours for your DNS to process these changes
