DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail) is an authentication protocol that verifies the origin and integrity of email messages using encrypted signatures.
This article outlines how to set up DKIM for ClubHouse Online, a custom website and communications platform used by clubs to manage email campaigns, reservations, and more.
The sending domain is the domain portion of the email address you use in the ‘From Address’ field of your campaigns.
For example, if your email is:
[email protected]
then the sending domain is:
clubhouseonline-e3.com
That is the domain where your DKIM key will be configured.
Enabling DKIM authentication helps:
Prove that your messages are coming from an authorized source
Improve your email deliverability
Ensure messages land in the inbox, not the spam folder
To properly authenticate all emails sent from your campaigns, ensure the following:
All email addresses used as a ‘From Address’ must be from the same domain.
(e.g., all campaign emails must be sent from @clubhouseonline-e3.com
)
Update your DNS records or add this key to Sendmarc by adding the following CNAME record:
Host | Type | Value |
---|---|---|
em | CNAME | dkim.emailcampaigns.net |
Replace <yourdomain.com>
with your actual sending domain.
Example:em._domainkey.clubhouseonline-e3.com → dkim.emailcampaigns.net.
If you’re unfamiliar with DNS updates, consult your IT team or domain registrar (e.g., GoDaddy, Network Solutions).
Once the DNS record has been published, notify the Clubhouse Online support team to complete verification and finalize the setup.
To update your DKIM record through Sendmarc, please refer to the Sendmarc DKIM Setup Documentation.
