How to: Setup DKIM for Hosted Email Domains

DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) is a method for associating a domain name with an email message, thereby allowing a person, role, or organization to claim some responsibility for the message. The association is set up by means of a digital signature which can be validated by recipients. Responsibility is claimed by a signer—independently of the message's actual authors or recipients—by adding a DKIM-Signature: field to the message's header. The verifier recovers the signer's public key using the DNS and then verifies that the signature matches the actual message's content.

Generally, Gmail requires that you have both an SPF and DKIM record on the email domain:

Generate a DKIM public key, private key, and key selector using a tool such as the SparkPost DKIM wizard. There are a number of similar tools available on search engines. The tool will ask for the domain name and the DomainKey selector.
