E-mail systems have undergone significant change during the last decades. When e-mail was new there was practically no secure set-up and anyone could pretend to be anyone else. This meant that spam and frauds were rampant.

Fast forward to 2020 and e-mail system landscape has changed radically. Now e-mails servers are certified and e-mails digitally signed. This means challenge for Odoo system builders as we cannot just plug a server to Internet and expect business e-mails to function out of the box.

In order for any business application – like Odoo – to be able to send reliably e-mails, system administrator must set up both Odoo server’s and client domain’s DNS settings. In this video Ossi Mäntylahti is explaining the principles of SPF, DKIM and DMARC. And after theory, showing exactly how to configure them on Odoo environment. We also cover common mistakes and explain how to avoid them.

To follow the instructions on this video, one must have access to DNS settings and Amazon AWS SES (Simple E-mail Solution).
