DKIM, which is short for DomainKeys Identified Mail, is an email authentication system, which prevents email headers from being spoofed and email content from being modified. This is done by attaching a digital signature to each email message sent from an address under a given domain name. The signature is issued based on a private key that’s available on the SMTP mail server and it can be verified by using a public key, which is available in the global Domain Name System. In this way, any message with changed content or a spoofed sender can be spotted by mail service providers. This technology will strengthen your worldwide web security noticeably and you’ll know for sure that any e-mail sent from a business collaborator, a bank, etc., is genuine. When you send out messages, the recipient will also be sure that you are indeed the one who has sent them. Any email message that appears to be counterfeit may either be marked as such or may never appear in the receiver’s inbox, based on how the given provider has chosen to treat such messages.

DomainKeys Identified Mail in Cloud Web Hosting

You will be able to get the most out of DomainKeys Identified Mail with each and every cloud web hosting that we offer without doing anything specific, since the obligatory records for using this email authentication system are set up automatically by our hosting platform when you add a domain to an active web hosting account via the Hepsia Control Panel. As long as the particular domain uses our NS records, a private encryption key will be issued and stored on our mail servers and a TXT record with a public key will be sent to the DNS database. In case you send out regular email messages to clients or business partners, they will always be delivered and no unsolicited individual will be able to forge your email address and make it look like you have sent a particular message.

DomainKeys Identified Mail in Semi-dedicated Hosting

The DomainKeys Identified Mail option comes by default with any domain that’s added to a semi-dedicated server account with us. It must also use our name servers, so that its DNS records are handled by our platform. The latter makes it possible for a special TXT record to be created, which is actually the public encryption key that verifies if a specific email is genuine or not. Such a record is set up when a new domain name is added to an account via the Hepsia Control Panel and at the same time, a private key is generated on our mail servers. If you use our web and email hosting services, your emails will always reach their target readers and you won’t have to worry about unsolicited parties forging your email addresses for spamming or scamming purposes, which is something quite important in case you use email messages to touch base with your business collaborators.
