### Step 5: Add SPF, DKIM, and DMARC Records

1. **SPF Record (Sender Policy Framework)**:

   SPF helps verify that the email is sent from an authorized server. To add this record, click on **Add New Record**.

   * Enter the SPF record provided by Uppush. It should look like:

   * Set **TTL** to **1 hour** or leave it as default.
   * Click **Save Changes**.
2. **DKIM Record (DomainKeys Identified Mail)**:

   DKIM helps verify the authenticity of your emails by ensuring they haven’t been tampered with during transit. To add this record:

   * Enter the DKIM record provided by Uppush. It should looks like this:&#x20;

   * Set **TTL** to **1 hour** or leave it as default.
   * Click **Save Changes**.
3. **DMARC Record (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance)**:

   DMARC helps to define how email receivers should handle emails that fail SPF or DKIM checks. To add this record:

   * Paste the DMARC record provided by Uppush (for example):

   * Set **TTL** to **1 hour** or leave it as default.
   * Click **Save Changes**.

2. Navigate to the **Verify Domain** section in Uppush.
3. Click on the **Check DNS** button to verify if the DNS records have been added successfully.
4. It may take a few minutes for the DNS records to propagate, but if everything is configured correctly, the status will show as **Verified**.
