This tutorial will teach how to set up Email Authentication. �?�??�? Email Authentication is the effort to equip messages of the email transport system with enough verifiable information so that recipients can recognize the nature of each incoming message automatically. This tutorial will assume that you are logged into your cPanel. �?�??�? If you are having trouble doing that, please see the tutorial named "How to Login to cPanel".
On the main page of your cPanel, scroll down to the Mail Section, and click on the icon called Email Authentication.

- Domain Keys - Which allows for incoming mail to be checked against the server it was sent from to verify that the mail has not been modified.
- SPF - will specify which machines are authorized to send email from your domain(s). This means that only mail sent through this server will appear as valid mail from your domain(s) when the SPF records are checked.
To activate Domain Keys simply Click the "Enable" button. Your action will be confirmed �?�??�? on the next page, �?�??�? Click "Go Back to return to the previous page.
