Sending DKIM-verified email

While creating/scheduling campaigns, select your DKIM-verified sender email if you have multiple sender identities. If you have just one sender email, that will be the default.

Wrap up

The DKIM verification helps to ensure you're compliant with recent Gmail and Yahoo anti-spam rules and improves the odds that your messages land in your customers' inbox.

Cheers.
