Prerequisites
Before you begin, make sure you have:- A SendKit account with a domain added
- Access to your Name.com account
- Your domain’s DNS records from the SendKit domain detail page
Add DNS records
Log in to Name.com, go to My Domains, click your domain, then select DNS Records. Click Add Record for each of the following.1. DKIM record
| Name.com field | SendKit value |
|---|---|
| Type | TXT |
| Host | sendkit._domainkey |
| Answer | Your DKIM value from SendKit |
| TTL | 300 |
2. SPF record
| Name.com field | SendKit value |
|---|---|
| Type | TXT |
| Host | send |
| Answer | Your SPF value from SendKit |
| TTL | 300 |
3. MX record
| Name.com field | SendKit value |
|---|---|
| Type | MX |
| Host | send |
| Answer | Your MX value from SendKit |
| Priority | 10 |
| TTL | 300 |
4. DMARC record (optional)
Verify your domain
Go back to your SendKit domain detail page and click Refresh. Name.com uses a low default TTL (300 seconds), so DNS changes typically propagate within a few minutes.If verification doesn’t succeed immediately, wait a few minutes and try again. SendKit also checks automatically in the background.
Troubleshooting
Host field appends domain automatically
Host field appends domain automatically
Name.com automatically appends your domain to the host field. Enter only the subdomain part — e.g.,
send not send.yourdomain.com.Using custom nameservers
Using custom nameservers
If your domain uses nameservers other than Name.com’s defaults, manage DNS at your active DNS provider instead.
