How do I configure SPF / DKIM records with Sendgrid?

Setting up SPF and DKIM is an important part of improving deliverability of your emails since it authenticates a given email delivery service to send email on behalf of your domain.

Option 1 - If you have your own Sendgrid Account

Jump into Settings > Whitelabels > Domains and add a new domain - use "sg" as the Subdomain, and select your domain from the dropdown.

Then you'll see a list of records that you'll need to create:


Option 2 - If you don't have your own Sendgrid Account

If you don't have your own Sendgrid account and are instead using the MageMail Sendgrid account, you'll want to setup the following DNS records:

CNAME

Type Host Data
CNAME sg. example.com u1900179.wl180.sendgrid.net
CNAME s1._domainkey. example.com s1.domainkey.u1900179.wl180.sendgrid.net
CNAME s2._domainkey. example.com s2.domainkey.u1900179.wl180.sendgrid.net

Replacing example.com with your domain (without the www).
