Domains Introduction
Adding and verifying a custom domain is essential for sending authenticated, high-deliverability emails with Mailofly.Why Verify a Domain?
Unverified sender addresses are rejected by major mailbox providers (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo) to prevent phishing and spoofing. Adding your domain configures:- DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail): Cryptographically signs your emails to prove they originated from your domain and were not tampered with in transit.
- SPF (Sender Policy Framework): Authorizes Mailofly’s IP addresses to dispatch emails on behalf of your domain.
- DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication): Specifies policies for how mailbox providers should handle unauthenticated emails.
Supported Domain Types
You can add both root/apex domains (e.g.example.com) or subdomains (e.g. mail.example.com, notifications.example.com). We recommend dedicated subdomains for separation of transactional and marketing traffic.
