Domain Verification

How to verify your domain?

Before you can send your first email, the domain of the sender’s email address has to be verified. This has to be done to trigger posts, automations and API queries.

  1. Click on the account name on the right and choose “Preferences” from the menu.
  2. Move to the “Domains” tab and click on “Verify Domain”.
  3. In the new window, insert an email address you have access to and which includes the domain of the sender’s email address and click “Send verification email”.
  4. You’ll receive a confirmation letter on the previously inserted email address.
  5. Click “verify domain” in the confirmation email or copy the link from the confirmation to your web browser’s address bar.
  6. Send your emails on the way!
  7. Check your verified domains and domains waiting for verification in your account preferences under the “Domains” tab.

Note! If you are not using your own domain or are using a domain with restricting DMARC, Smaily will automatically change the sender’s address.

If you are using Gmail, Yahoo (or other email service) email as a sender’s address, Smaily will change the sender’s address from your email@gmail.com to youremail=gmail.com@smailydomain.tld

If you are using your own domain, but domain is with restrictive DMARC record then, Smaily will change the sender’s address from youremail@domain.com to youremail=domain.com@smailydomain.tld

This will help avoid spam folders. Read more on SPF, DKIM and DMARC records here.
