Follow this guide to setup a DMARC record for your domain(s) in Namesco

On this page you will find a comprehensive guide on how to publish a DMARC record in Namesco. A DMARC record defines the rules for your DMARC implementation and should be published into your DNS. A DMARC record contains the DMARC policy that informs ISPs (like Gmail, Microsoft, Yahoo! etc.) if a domain is set up to use DMARC. DMARC Analyzer will aid you to generate your own custom DMARC record with our DMARC Record Generator.

After generating your DMARC record you should follow these simple steps to publish your DMARC record into your Namesco DNS:

1) Open your Namesco account

Log in to your Namesco account.

2) DNS Settings

Navigate to the DNS Settings section and click on the DNS Zones on Account which will take you to the DNS Zones module.

3) Add Record

Note: If you already see a record with name ‘_dmarc’, edit this record instead of creating a new record! This is important as you can’t have multiple DMARC records.

Select the domain for your DMARC record.

After you’ve selected a domain you should have been taken to the Modify DNS Zone.

You can publish your DMARC record within the Modify DNS Zone by following these simple steps:

Host name: enter ‘_dmarc’ as Host name (the TXT record name should be “_dmarc.yourdomain.com”)
Type: select TXT as Type.
Result: enter your custom DMARC Analyzer TXT record in the Result section (your custom DMARC record as generated by our DMARC record generator).

Click on Save to publish your (DMARC) DNS record.

4) Your first DMARC reports should start dripping in after 72 hours

You should now wait some time before the first reports will start to arrive in DMARC Analyzer. This is due to DNS caching and the fact that the ISPs mostly send one report each day. This can take upto 72 hours.
