What is DMARC and what does it do?
DMARC gives mail servers specific directions on what to do after having received a message from your domain. DMARC stands for "Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance." While DMARC is not required it can be a powerful tool.
Setting up a DMARC Record in cPanel.
- Log in to your cPanel.
- In the "Domains" section click on "Zone Editor"
3. Click "Manage" on the row with the domain that you'd like to add or edit DMARC records for.
4. Click on the button with a down arrow to the right of the "+ Add Record" button and then click on "Add "DMARC" Record"
5. You will want to choose what type of record you want to create. If you have a record you already built you can choose the "Raw" tab otherwise stay on the "DMARC" tab and choose your options.
6. You can click on "Optional Parameters" to specify in greater detail how your DMARC Policy will work. In the event that you're unsure the defaults are a safe option and you can change them at any time.
7. When you are done you can click "Save Record".
