I use mailchimp.com to send out mails from one of my domains. In order to get them verified, I followed their setup page which says that I need to add the following:
DKIM: Create a CNAME record for k1._domainkey.meatlover.dk with this value:
dkim.mcsv.net
SPF: Create a TXT record for meatlover.dk with:
v=spf1 include:servers.mcsv.net ?all
I did that yesterday morning but mailchimp still complains about the dkim cname record isn’t there. How can I verify that it is actually there?
You could use this web tool to test DKIM: http://dkimcore.org/c/keycheck
Did the test for you with:
but returns _DKIM Record for k1.domainkey.meatlover.dk a wrong value as v=spf1 -all when by default looks for a p=… response.
Hope this helps.
That is strange. I have added the txt exactly as they describe. Could it be an error on the mailchimp page?
It’s not asking for a TXT record for DKIM… It’s asking you for a CNAME record for DKIM and a TXT record for the SPF one
To check the spf you could use this test, too: http://www.kitterman.com/spf/validate.html
v=spf1 include:servers.mcsv.net **?**all value is returned a valid there but you may try a v=spf1 include:servers.mcsv.net **~**all one if still with problems.
yes that is what I added TXT and CNAME like described in the text mentioned in my initial post.
I tried changing the TXT from ? to ~ as proposed. same result
The test has no reason to lie… please, double check you haven’t a double entry for the k1 selector (perhaps one as a CNAME and may be other one as TXT):

About changes note that may need up to 48h to propagate worldwide (mainly if you are mirroring your DNS records to a secundary (slave) DNS server)
what you see in the screendump is what I have. The only thing I can think of is that the *.domain could give some problems. But normally that isnt the case
