Until your sending domain is verified, EasyDigz cannot send marketing email, no campaigns, no triggers. Verification depends on DNS changes that can take up to 48 hours. Start it on day one and let it run in the background while you do everything else.

Four features are behind this one gate. Nothing to the right of it works until verification passes.

#Why it is required at all

You are sending email that claims to come from your domain. When it arrives, your recipient's email service, whether that is Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo or their company's own mail server, checks whether the sender is really allowed to send for that domain. If it cannot verify that, your email goes to spam or is rejected outright.

There is no email provider to choose

EasyDigz sends all of your email itself. You do not pick or connect a provider such as Gmail or Outlook, those are simply examples of the services your recipients use, and every one of them runs the same check.

Adding DNS records to your domain is how you tell every one of those services that EasyDigz sends on your behalf. Until that is in place, EasyDigz will not send for you, not because of an arbitrary rule, but because sending unverified mail damages your reputation in a way that is slow and painful to undo.

#What is blocked until it passes

Feature	Before verification
Drip campaigns	Cannot send
Trigger emails	Cannot send
Composer sends	Limited or paused
Campaign analytics	Nothing to measure
The Go Live launch email	The button sends you back to set the domain up

The sending rules apply either way

Verification is about deliverability. The protections covered in The sending rules, caps, suppression, auto-pause, apply whether or not your domain is verified.

#What you need before you start

A domain you own. Not a Gmail or Yahoo address, an actual domain.
Access to its DNS settings, or someone who has it. Usually wherever you bought the domain.
A root domain. yourbrokerage.com works; mail.yourbrokerage.com and www.yourbrokerage.com are not accepted.

Root domains only

Subdomains are rejected. If you enter one, verification will never pass, this is a genuine restriction, not a temporary glitch.

#The order to do it in

1
Decide which domain you will send from.
Usually the same domain as your website.
2
Decide where replies go.
See Choosing a sending mode, it decides whether replies reach your existing mailbox, are forwarded to your inbox, or go nowhere.
3
Add the DNS records.
See The DNS records.
4
Wait, and check back.
See Verifying your domain.

It is at Tenant Settings → Email Domain. Note that it lives under Tenant Settings, not under Emails, a common place to get stuck.
