Creating an Email Domain

Create an email domain to set up important authentication measures for sending emails.

• Console
• CLI
• API

• 1. Open the navigation menu and click Developer Services. Under Application Integration, click Email Delivery. Under Email Delivery, click Email Domains.
  2. Click Create Email Domain.
  3. On the Create Email Domain panel, provide the following information:
     • Enter your email domain name.
       • The domain must be one that you own or control in DNS, because the measures used to establish verification and authentication require a DNS record.
       • The domain must be one that you plan to use for your email address while sending an email. It can't be a public mailbox provider domain, such as gmail.com or hotmail.com.
       • (Optional) If you want to change your compartment, select the one you require. By default, your current compartment is selected.
       • (Optional) Add tags to organize your resource. To apply a defined tag, you must have permissions to use the tag namespace. For more information about tagging, see Resource Tags. If you are not sure whether to apply tags, skip this option (you can apply tags later) or ask your administrator.
  4. Click Create Email Domain.
  5. On the Email Domains page, click the email domain you created.
  6. On the Email Domains Details page, check whether the Verification Status is Verified or Not Verified. To register your domain with OCI, see Managing Your Domains.
