Where to look
- SPF – on the domain itself, starting with
v=spf1. There must be only one. - DMARC – on
_dmarc.example.com, starting withv=DMARC1. - DKIM – on
selector._domainkey.example.com. The selector comes from your mail provider. - Verification – tokens such as
google-site-verification=…usually sit on the domain itself, or on a name such as_vercel.example.com.
Why a record might not appear
Check that you added it to the right name. Many DNS panels add the domain automatically, so typing _dmarc.example.com can create _dmarc.example.com.example.com. Long records are split into 255‑character strings; this tool joins them back together.
