Email on your domain / Microsoft 365

Microsoft 365 on your domain. The exact records.

The DNS records Microsoft 365’s own docs ask for, so mail to you@yourdomain arrives and what you send isn’t marked as spam. Add them at your domain’s DNS provider, then check your domain live below.

  1. Add these records at your DNS provider

    “@” means the domain itself. MX records receive mail; SPF, DKIM and DMARC prove that mail you send is really yours.

    TypeNameValue
    MXReceive mail@yourdomain-com.mail.protection.outlook.com (copy the exact host from the admin center)Priority 0Different for every account: copy it from Microsoft 365.
    TXTAllowed senders (SPF)@v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com -all

    TXTAnti-spoofing (DMARC)_dmarcv=DMARC1; p=none

  2. Good to know

    Microsoft gives each domain its own MX host and DKIM targets. Copy them from the admin center: Settings → Domains → your domain → DNS records.

    A domain can have only one SPF record. If your app also sends email through another service, the two must be merged into one: add the service below and the check gives you the merged record.

  3. Check your domain

    Type your domain: we read public DNS and show which Microsoft 365 records are in place, which are missing and which need to change.
