I noticed that i wasn’t getting emails via my host provided email. After opening a support ticket with them, they said that the DKIM via my cloudflare had to be updated.
Problem is, I have absolutely no idea what needs to be updated. They gave me a string of text and I pasted that into the DKIM section and I’m still not getting emails.
How do i figure out what needs to be entered for this field to get my email working?
Please post a screenshot of the DNS record you entered here.
