How to To setup a Domain Key in Godaddy.com

May 12, 2008

This info is based on eROI clients. Your Domain Key may differ, ask your provider.

The Domain Key is added as a TXT entry. Below are some examples of what these TXT entries will look like:

TXT Name
_domainkey.eroi.com
kesp._domainkey.eroi.com

TXT Value
"t=y; o=~;"
"k=rsa\; p=MIGfMA0GCSqGSIb...."

1. Click on "Add New TXT Record"
2. For the TXT Name, enter "_domainkey" and for the value type in "o=~".
3. Click to add another TXT record.
4. For the value field, take the entry from your email (example from above is "kesp._domainkey.eroi.com") and copy all the text up to the "." after "_domainkey" (kesp._domainkey) and use that for your TXT Name.
5. Your TXT Value is the long string without the "\". Godaddy's DNS doesn't like the "\" so just leave it out.

Click OK and the change should take around an hour.
