Because of the sign limit of 192 I can’t succeed in adding this code. Can anyone help with this?

Thank you very much in advance :-)

Kind regards,

Pieter

We can help you with this. I’ll send you a private e-mail so you can send me the code and details of what you need and we’ll add it for you.

Hi, Pieter. We’ve added that DNS record. Once DNS has had time to propagate, just let us know if you see any further problems with it. Thanks!

Thank you, I don’t no how long it should take, can’t see any differences yet.

Hi DLLH,

The software still doesn’t recognize the DKIM.

Would you be so kind to check it? Thank you very much!

Kind regards,

Pieter

Hi there,

I just verified that the DKIM are in place. You can test yourself using Terminal. If you open it up and run the following command, you’ll see your DKIM:

dig moneybird._domainkey.psdestigter.nl txt +short

You may want to double check to ensure that it’s the correct domain key that you gave us, but it should work for you!

Hi, I assume the code is correct, as far as I can interpret it right and the backslashes in the beginning belong there.

Still the software doesn’t accept it.

One of your colleagues told me I don’t need DKIM because WP uses askimet. Is that so?

WordPress.com does indeed use Akismet, but DKIM works in a different way and so if you are concerned about verifying your identity when sending email in the fighting of spam (which is a lot of what DKIM does), then you will likely want to get these in place.

At this point I would recommend reaching out to your email provider and seeing if they can see anything wrong with the setup.
