I am setting up DMARC, SPF and DKIM records for the first time. I'm using WordPress, Elementor, SiteGround, and Google Workspace.
When submitting a Form from my website, sent from arandomemail@mysite.com
, my email sends the form submission to spam. I did expect this to happen because I set my p
value to quarantine
.
But, I don't know how to ensure my form sends to my inbox.
Also, my form submission comes back neutral
on SPF and fail
on DKIM
A couple things I do want:
- Only
arandomemail@mysite.com
should be able to pass quarantine (I assume this is a best practice to ensure that onlyarandomemail@mysite.com
has the potential to be spoofed) - Ideally,
arandomemail@mysite.com
would only be allowed to send emails to a certain email(s) address - like sales@mydomain.com. (This I assume helps flag any emails spammers send from my domain to to external people).
If I am going about this all wrong, please point me in another direction that abides by current best practices.
A few other notes that might be helpful:
- We're only sending email from gmail via siteground
- the domain is not registered with siteground but uses siteground nameservers
