How to Add DKIM Record in GoDaddy: GoDaddy DKIM Setup Guide
This post provides step-by-step instructions on how to add a DKIM record in GoDaddy.
About DKIM records
First of all, a DKIM record is a TXT or CNAME record published in the DNS on your domain, under _(selector).domainkey.yourdomain.com, where “yourdomain.com” is your actual domain or subdomain. When a new email message comes in, the receiving email server looks up the DKIM record for the public key and uses it to verify the authenticity of the message.
For more information, refer to the DKIM spec.
