Further frequently asked questions

Which DNS records do I need to configure?

The system automatically shows you the required DNS records. As a rule, these are:

  • Brevo code - to verify the domain
  • DKIM records - for email authentication
  • DMARC record - for additional security (optional)

Copy the values exactly as displayed into the DNS management of your domain provider.

Why is my domain not being verified?

Possible causes:

  • DNS changes have not yet propagated (wait up to 48 hours)
  • DNS records were not copied correctly
  • Wrong DNS record types were used

Click Authenticate now to re-check the status. The system shows the missing records.

Can I have several email senders per domain?

Yes, you can create any number of email senders per domain. However, each sender must be verified individually.

What happens if I delete a domain?

When a domain is deleted, all associated email senders are deleted as well. You will be asked to confirm before deletion.

How can I resend the verification email?

In the sender list, click resend next to the unverified sender. A new verification email is sent to the address.
