Step by step in Network Solutions

Verify your domain

Your email provider needs proof that you control this domain before it accepts email for it.

Type
TXT
Refers to
@
TXT Value
Copy it from Migadu admin (see below)

Where to find your value

Copy the verification record shown for your domain in the Migadu admin (admin.migadu.com).

We haven’t been able to confirm this value from Migadu's public docs yet, so we don’t show one.

In Network Solutions

  1. Select +ADD RECORD.
  2. Under Type, choose TXT.
  3. Set Refers to (@ for your bare domain), paste the TXT Value, and pick a TTL.
  4. Select ADD.

Point your MX records

MX records tell every other mail server where to deliver email for your domain. They must point to your provider and nowhere else.

Type
MX
Refers to
@
Priority
10
Mail server
aspmx1.migadu.com
Type
MX
Refers to
@
Priority
20
Mail server
aspmx2.migadu.com

In Network Solutions

  1. On Manage Advanced DNS Records, select +ADD RECORD.
  2. Under Type, choose MX.
  3. Set Refers to @, enter the Mail server and the Priority, and pick a TTL.
  4. Select ADD.
  5. Delete any other MX records: select the edit tool, then Delete.
  6. Repeat for each MX record above.

Add the SPF record

SPF is a TXT record that lists the services allowed to send email from your domain, so receivers can spot forgeries.

Type
TXT
Refers to
@
TXT Value
v=spf1 include:spf.migadu.com -all
  • A domain must have only one SPF record. If you already have one, add include:spf.migadu.com to it instead of creating a second.

In Network Solutions

  1. Select +ADD RECORD.
  2. Under Type, choose TXT.
  3. Set Refers to (@ for your bare domain), paste the TXT Value, and pick a TTL.
  4. Select ADD.

Set up DKIM

DKIM publishes a public key so receivers can confirm your messages really came from you and were not changed on the way.

Type
CNAME
Host Name
key1._domainkey
Alias to
key1.yourdomain.com._domainkey.migadu.com
  • The target includes your own domain name, so each domain's DKIM target is different.
  • Migadu's example ends the target with a period. Add it only if your DNS host asks for fully qualified names.
Type
CNAME
Host Name
key2._domainkey
Alias to
key2.yourdomain.com._domainkey.migadu.com
Type
CNAME
Host Name
key3._domainkey
Alias to
key3.yourdomain.com._domainkey.migadu.com

In Network Solutions

  1. Select +ADD RECORD.
  2. Under Type, choose CNAME.
  3. Set Refers to Other Host, enter the name in Host Name and the target in Alias to.
  4. Select ADD.
  5. Repeat for each CNAME record above.

Add the DMARC record (recommended)

DMARC tells receivers what to do with mail that fails SPF and DKIM, and where to send reports about it.

Type
TXT
Refers to
_dmarc
TXT Value
v=DMARC1; p=quarantine;
  • This is the value Migadu suggests. It asks receivers to treat failing mail as suspicious (usually spam), so make sure SPF and DKIM pass first.

In Network Solutions

  1. Select +ADD RECORD.
  2. Under Type, choose TXT.
  3. Set Refers to (@ for your bare domain), paste the TXT Value, and pick a TTL.
  4. Select ADD.

Check your setup

Once the records are saved, run a live check. We look up your domain in public DNS and tell you what is right, missing or wrong, with the fix in Network Solutions’s words.

We only read public DNS records. Nothing is stored.

Common mistakes with Migadu on Network Solutions

Using a DKIM target without your domain

Each DKIM CNAME points to a target that contains your own domain, like key1.yourdomain.com._domainkey.migadu.com. Copy the full target for your domain.

Adding only one DKIM record

Migadu uses three DKIM CNAME records: key1, key2 and key3. Add all three.

Adding a second SPF record

A domain must have only one SPF record. If you already have one, add include:spf.migadu.com to it.

Network Solutions: Values must not end with a dot

Network Solutions doesn't accept a final period on mail server or CNAME targets. Enter them without the trailing dot.
