SPF is an email authentication protocol that allows you to specify which email servers can send through your domain. Email coming from other servers will fail authentication and potentially not get delivered.
Step 1: Sign in to your domain provider
Step 2: Navigate to the page to edit your domain’s DNS records
It can sometimes be called “DNS Management”, “Name Server Management”, or “Advanced Settings”.
Step 3: Check your current setup
Check that you don’t already have an SPF setup. An SPF record looks like this:
If your domain already has an SPF record, please check with your IT and/or provider to see where the problem comes from.
Only 1 SPF should be created per domain. Deleting an existing SPF can disconnect other tools that require it.
Step 4 (if you have 2 or more tools that require SPF):
Add an SPF record for 2 tools. It should look like this:
Copy-paste the following text and replace “[tool-domain]” by the tool’s domain url:
It can take up to 48 hours to take effect and have the right status in lemwarm.
MX records setup
MX records ensure that incoming email is routed to the correct server. In other words, without properly configured MX records, you won’t be able to receive replies.
Step 1: Sign in to your domain provider
Step 2: Navigate to the page to edit your domain’s DNS records
It can sometimes be called “DNS Management”, “Name Server Management”, or “Advanced Settings”.
Step 3: Delete any existing MX records
They will look something like this:
Take a screenshot of all your DNS records before deleting any. This way you can revert back if needed.
Step 4: Add the following MX records
Copy-paste the following text:
TYPE
MX
HOST NAME
@
VALUE
ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
PRIORITY
1
TYPE
MX
HOST NAME

Step 5: Check that your new setup works
Go to the “DNS checks” section of lemwarm to test your domain again.
It can take up to 48 hours to take effect and have the right status in lemwarm.
DMARC setup
A DMARC record determines what to do with unauthorized emails if they fail authentication. DMARC can let the unauthorized email pass normally, send it to spam, or not deliver it at all.
Step 1: Sign in to your domain provider
Step 2: Navigate to the page to edit your domain’s DNS records
It can sometimes be called “DNS Management”, “Name Server Management”, or “Advanced Settings”.
It can take up to 48 hours to take effect and have the right status in lemwarm.
Custom tracking domain (CTD)
Email sending tools, like lemlist and Mailchimp, use tracking domains to track stats like open and click rates. Since many of their customers use the default tracking domain, which may have a spammy reputation, your deliverability may suffer. To prevent this, use your own custom tracking domain.
Step 1: Sign in to your domain provider
Step 2: Navigate to the page to edit your domain’s DNS records
It can sometimes be called “DNS Management”, “Name Server Management”, or “Advanced Settings”.
Step 3: Add your CTD to your DNS records
They will look something like this:
TYPE
CNAME
HOST NAME
trail
VALUE
custom.lemlist.com.
You only need to create the CTD for each domain. It will apply to all emails on the same domain.
Step 5: Check that your new setup works
Go to the “DNS checks” section of lemwarm to test your domain again.
It can take up to 48 hours to take effect and have the right status in lemwarm.
