Getting Started with Email Delivery

1. Open the navigation menu and click Identity & Security. Under Identity, click Users. Locate the user in the list that has permissions to manage email, and then click the user's name to view the details.

   Tip
   
   If your user does not have permissions to view or create users, you can create SMTP credentials under your user.

   Open the Profile menu () and click User Settings.

2. Click SMTP Credentials.
3. Click Generate SMTP Credentials.
4. Enter a Description of the SMTP Credentials in the dialog box.
5. Click Generate SMTP Credentials. A user name and password is displayed.
6. Copy the user name and password for your records and click Close.

1. Open the navigation menu and click Identity & Security. Under Identity, click Policies. A list of the policies in the compartment you're viewing is displayed.
2. If you want to attach the policy to a compartment other than the one you're viewing, select the compartment from the list on the left. Where the policy is attached controls who can later modify or delete it (see Overview of Policies).
3. Click Create Policy.
4. Enter the following:
   • Name: A unique name for the policy. The name must be unique across all policies in your tenancy. You cannot change this later.
   • Description: A friendly description. You can change this later if you want to.
   • Policy Versioning: Select Keep Policy Current if you'd like the policy to stay current with any future changes to the service's definitions of verbs and resources. Or if you'd prefer to limit access according to the definitions that were current on a specific date, select Use Version Date and enter that date in format YYYY-MM-DD format. For more information, see Advanced Policy Features.

   • Statement: Enter the following policy statement:

     Allow group <group name> to use email-family in compartment <compartment name>

     For more information about policies and policy syntax, see Policy Basics.

   • Tags: If you have permissions to create a resource, then you also have permissions to apply free-form tags to that 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.

See Managing DNS Service Zones for instructions on adding a zone record in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. If your DNS setup resides with another provider, please reference their documentation for adding a TXT record to your domain.

       Sending Location	SPF Record
       Americas	v=spf1 include:rp.oracleemaildelivery.com ~all
       Asia/Pacific	v=spf1 include:ap.rp.oracleemaildelivery.com ~all
       Europe	v=spf1 include:eu.rp.oracleemaildelivery.com ~all
