*All domain changes must be approved and completed by BoldTrail Support teams prior to you providing you with nameservers if you opt to manage DNS on your own (not recommended).
Nameservers
Upon receiving your unique nameservers to use your domain with Boldtrail, you will need to update your nameserver settings within your domain registrar.
The nameservers will need to replace the existing values.
Every registrar is slightly different. Please refer to the below articles to learn how to change your nameservers in your registrar:
Additionally, we strongly recommend adding the following SPF records for email delivery best practices.
SPF Values
If your domain has an existing SFP record: Update the value to include ip4198.202.27.0/24.
For example: "v=spf1 include:emailsrvr.com~all", becomes "v=spf1 include:emailsrvr.com include:sendgrid.net ip4:198.202.27.0/24 ~all"
If no SPF record currently exists: Add a new DNS record as follows:
Record Type: TXT
Name/Host: @
Target/Points to: "v=spf1 include:sendgrid.net ip4:198.202.27.0/24 ~all"
TTL: Auto or Fastest Possible
DMARC Recommendation
While DMARC won’t impact how emails are sent from BoldTrail, they will impact how the recipient’s email service provider handles them. We recommend domains are configured with DMARC as p=none as this will allow for higher rates of delivery.
Ultimately, however, it is up to the owner of the domain on how they want to configure this record.
DKIM Configuration
The BoldTrail Support team will need to configure a unique DKIM value for each independently managed domain. Please reach out to support@boldtrail.com to request a unique DKIM value if you are managing your own domain with BoldTrail.
