Tuta, the world’s only quantum-resistant encrypted email provider, supports Sender Policy Framework (SPF), Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC), and Domain Keys Identified Mail (DKIM). While we have supported DKIM for Tuta domains from the beginning, demand from our growing number of users using their own domain required us to also introduce SPF, DKIM, and DMARC support for custom domains into our secure email platform.

Tuta protects your custom domain with SPF, DKIM and DMARC
Using a custom domain for your emails is a crucial part of achieving a polished and professional online presence. Tuta offers full support for custom domains and hotels and motels email list even allows for the creation of unlimited email alias addresses once the domain has been linked to your account. In addition to all the great features and functions of your encrypted email account, we also support email authentication policies that protect your domain from being spoofed by spammers. These email authentication policies are known as SPF, DKIM, and DMARC. While the acronyms may seem intimidating at first, we'll explain the ins and outs of each authentication method and why you should add them to your custom domain's DNS settings.

What is DNS?
Domain Name Service, abbreviated DNS, is a fundamental resource for browsing the Internet. DNS is mainly known for translating registered domain names with IP addresses. This service makes our daily Internet browsing much more pleasant, as we do not have to try to remember lists of IP addresses to visit our favorite websites, but only have to remember their domain names (such as tuta.com).

There are several security features that can be added to strengthen DNS, such as DANE or DNSSEC. For email, there are three forms of email domain authentication that are crucial to protecting your domain and reputation from abuse by spammers and other malicious actors. Tuta has been offering this support since 2019, while big tech companies like Google and Yahoo have only started requiring this higher level of security in February 2024.
