Domain Authentication and Alignment Benefits
Benefits of authenticating and aligning your domain:
- With your domain authenticated, you can add email accounts from that domain without needing to verify them manually.
- Improve your delivery rate, reducing the chances that your emails end up in the SPAM folder.
- Stop seeing “on behalf of emdlv.net” or “via emdlv.net” in the sender information in some email clients, improving brand perception.
- Protection against spoofing, enhancing the security and trustworthiness of your emails.
- Policy Compliance: It's mandatory to achieve better delivery rates with providers like Gmail and Yahoo, who have tightened delivery requirements.
Important Information
Note: If you're using a domain from a free provider such as Yahoo, Hotmail or Gmail, you won't be able to authenticate it. Therefore, we don't recommend using a sender address with a free domain provider.

.Step-by-step Guide to Authenticate Your Domain in Easymailing
1 Go to the Settings panel and select the Verifications tab. From the dropdown, choose Sending domains.
2 Click on New domain to start the authentication process.
3 Enter the email address you’ll use for sending (e.g. marketing@mycompany.com
) and click Save. You’ll receive an email with a verification link. Enable "align links" if you want the tracking links to use a subdomain of your main domain to boost link reputation.
Once your email address is verified, the domain will appear as verified in the domain list, and you can proceed with authentication.
Automatic Authentication
4 If your domain is eligible for automatic authentication, clicking Authenticate will open a modal where you can enter your domain provider login details. If two-factor authentication is enabled, you'll also need to enter a verification code. Once completed, the DNS records will be created automatically.
Manual Authentication
5 Create the DNS records shown in the window within your DNS provider’s panel. Then click Authenticate domain to check if the records are correctly configured. If successful, your domain will be authenticated. Otherwise, you will see the errors you need to fix.
If you selected "align links", an SSL certificate must be created for the link domain, which may take a few minutes.
6 Your domain will appear as authenticated and aligned.
