If you’re feeling confused looking at the DNS screen… that’s completely normal.
Most people have never touched DNS before, and honestly, it looks scary at first.
👉 But here’s the truth:
This is just a copy–paste job, nothing more.
You don’t need technical knowledge.
You don’t need to “understand everything”.
Just follow the steps slowly — and you’ll be done in a few minutes.
What Are We Actually Doing?
Right now, your domain (like yourdomain.com) is not yet connected to DeoMail.
So we need to tell the internet:
👉 “Hey, it’s okay for DeoMail to send emails from my domain.”
We do that by adding 4 small entries (called DNS records).
That’s it.
The 4 Things You Need to Add
You will add these 4 records:
- MX
- SPF
- DKIM
- DMARC
👉 Don’t worry about the names — we’ll do each one step-by-step.
Step 1: Go to Your Domain Settings
First, go to the website where you bought your domain.
This could be:
- GoDaddy
- Namecheap
- Cloudflare
- Hostinger
Now Look for This
Somewhere in your dashboard, find:
- DNS Settings
- DNS Management
- Advanced DNS
👉 It might look different depending on your provider — that’s okay.
Can’t Find It?
Just Google:
👉 “how to edit DNS in GoDaddy”
(or whatever your provider is)
📌 Important Before We Start
You will see fields like:
- Type
- Name / Host
- Value
👉 Don’t overthink these.
You’ll just copy from DeoMail and paste here.
Now Let’s Add Each Record (One by One)
Take your time. Do it slowly.
STEP 2: Add MX Record
What This Means (Simple)
This tells the internet:
👉 “Where should emails for my domain go?”
What To Do
Click “Add Record” in your DNS panel.
Now fill:
- Type: MX
- Name / Host:
If DeoMail showspm→ writepm
If it shows@→ write@ - Priority: 10
- Value:
hi.deomail.com
After That
Click Save
That’s it for MX.
STEP 3: Add SPF Record
What This Means
This protects your domain from fake emails.
What To Do
Click Add Record
Fill:
- Type: TXT
- Name / Host:
Same as before (usually@orpm) - Value:
v=spf1 mx ~all
⚠️ Important (Don’t Skip This)
If you already see a TXT record starting with:
v=spf1
👉 Do NOT create a new one
Instead:
- Click Edit
- Add
mxbefore~all
STEP 4: Add DKIM Record
What This Means
This proves your emails are real (like a signature).
What To Do
Click Add Record
Fill:
- Type: TXT
- Name / Host:
Copy EXACTLY from DeoMail
(example:dkim._domainkey.pm) - Value:
👉 Copy the long key from DeoMail
⚠️ Important
- The value will be very long — that’s normal
- Copy everything exactly
- Even one missing letter = error
STEP 5: Add DMARC Record
What This Means
This protects your domain from spam and misuse.
What To Do
Click Add Record
Fill:
- Type: TXT
- Name / Host:
_dmarc(or_dmarc.pm) - Value:
v=DMARC1; p=quarantine; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com
Replace This
Replace yourdomain.com with your actual domain.
STEP 6: Wait a Few Minutes
After saving everything:
- Usually works in 5–10 minutes
- Sometimes takes longer — that’s normal
STEP 7: Go Back to DeoMail
Click:
👉 “Verify All Records” button
That’s It — You’re Done 🎉
Once all records are verified:
- Your domain is fully connected
- You can start sending emails
If Something Doesn’t Work
Don’t worry — these are very common:
🔴 Still showing error?
- Wait 10 minutes
- Click verify again
🔴 DKIM not working?
- Check if you copied full value
- No missing text
🔴 SPF issue?
- Make sure only ONE SPF exists
