Why Your Emails Might Be Getting Ignored (and How to Fix It)

You write a professional email, hit send… and it vanishes into spam. Or worse—your client never gets it at all. Why?

It's not what you wrote. It's what your domain is (or isn't) telling the receiving mail servers.

The Three Keys: SPF, DKIM, and DMARC

  • SPF (Sender Policy Framework): Defines which servers are allowed to send emails for your domain.
  • DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail): Adds a digital signature to prove your message wasn't altered.
  • DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance): Tells inboxes what to do if an email doesn't pass SPF or DKIM checks.

Without these, your emails look suspicious to Gmail, Outlook, and other services—so they get filtered out or blocked entirely.

But It's Not Just About Deliverability

If someone can spoof your domain, they can pretend to be you—putting your reputation and clients at risk.

That's why it's now mandatory, not optional. In February 2024, Google and Yahoo began requiring DMARC authentication for bulk senders—with enforcement tightening further in 2025. If your domain lacks a DMARC record, messages to Gmail and Yahoo addresses face rejection. Your business needs these records whether you're sending newsletters or just regular client emails.

The Veloxant Difference

We configure these records specifically for your setup—no generic settings, no guesswork. Just clean, authenticated email that gets delivered.

Think of SPF, DKIM, and DMARC as the ID badge, the signature, and the policy handbook for your emails.
