Back to How to VideosSetting Up a Custom Email Domain
Want to send emails from a branded address like [email protected] instead of a generic domain? Here's how to set up a custom email domain in Fieldmagic to boost your deliverability and professionalism:
🛠️ 1. Access Email Domain Settings
Head to your Settings in Fieldmagic and click Email Domains to get started.
🌐 2. Create a Subdomain
Add a new subdomain (e.g., fm.yourdomain.com). Fieldmagic will generate the necessary DNS records for you automatically.
📩 3. Forward DNS Instructions
Email the generated DNS records to your IT team or domain administrator so they can update your DNS settings.
✅ 4. Verify the Domain
Once the DNS records are live, return to Fieldmagic and click Verify to confirm your domain is active and ready.
🧾 5. Update SPF Records
Access your domain’s SPF record and add the new subdomain to authorize emails being sent from it. This helps ensure your emails land in inboxes—not spam folders.
🧹 6. Clean Up DNS Settings
Double-check that only the required records remain and remove anything unnecessary. Add the subdomain as a trusted sender.
🔍 7. Confirm SPF Update
Use an SPF checker tool to verify everything’s working. You’re good to go when you see your new subdomain listed in the results!
