Email domains

Before high-volume email campaigns, verify your sending domain so messages reach inboxes. Open SettingsNotificationsEmail Domain (/settings/email-domains). The page heading is Email Domain Verification. Select Add Domain, enter the domain without protocol prefix, then publish SPF, DKIM, and any CNAME records at your DNS provider. After propagation, run Verify in SWS Agent. Each verified domain card supports from-name, from-address local part, logo upload, and routing tabs for purposes, reporting teams, and allocation groups. Marketing and transactional mail share deliverability reputation—verify before the first bulk send and again when adding a new subdomain for campaigns.
