Procedure to follow
- The customer opens a service support request in order to enable signature of outgoing emails
- SecuTix generates a pair of DKIM public/private key for two given selectors
- The mosamuseum institution add the two following DNS records in their zone (to enable updates of keys)
stxsel1._domainkey.mosamuseum.com. IN CNAME sel1-mosa._domainkey.dkim.secutix.com.
stxsel2._domainkey.mosamuseum.com. IN CNAME sel2-mosa._domainkey.dkim.secutix.com.

institution code "mosa" with the institution code
- The customer opens a service support request in order to enable signature of outgoing emails

See https://abnormalsecurity.com/glossary/mx-record, which includes "if you want to successfully deliver emails, you need an MX record".
Setup DMARC
Introduction to DMARC
DMARC, which stands for “Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance”, is an email authentication, policy, and reporting protocol. It builds on the widely deployed SPF and DKIM protocols, adding linkage to the author (“From:”) domain name, published policies for recipient handling of authentication failures, and reporting from receivers to senders, to improve and monitor protection of the domain from fraudulent email. Source: https://dmarc.org/.
DMARC - Procedure to follow
Due to recent changes to email handling by Google and Yahoo for anyone sending more than 5,000 emails daily, you should ensure that you have a DMARC record in your DNS settings.
If you don't know anything about DMARC, then we recommend you add the following DNS record:
- _dmarc.mosamuseum.com. IN TXT "v=DMARC1; p=none"
Please check afterwards with https://mxtoolbox.com/dmarc.aspx: it shouldn't include any errors (i.e. anything flagged with ). Please also read https://support.google.com/a/answer/10032473 to progressively improve your DMARC record.
