Setup Steps

  1. 1In hPanel, go to Emails and select your domain
  2. 2If the domain uses Hostinger DNS, use the automatic setup. Otherwise, add the records below at your DNS provider
  3. 3SPF: a TXT record at @ with v=spf1 include:_spf.mail.hostinger.com ~all, or add the include to your existing SPF record
  4. 4DKIM: three CNAME records, hostingermail-a._domainkey, hostingermail-b._domainkey and hostingermail-c._domainkey, pointing to hostingermail-a.dkim.mail.hostinger.com, hostingermail-b.dkim.mail.hostinger.com and hostingermail-c.dkim.mail.hostinger.com
  5. 5Return to hPanel: when all records are correct, the domain shows as connected

Last step: publish a DMARC record. It sends you a daily report of every message sent as your domain, including the ones from Hostinger Email.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Hostinger need three DKIM records?

Hostinger Mail signs with three selectors: hostingermail-a, hostingermail-b and hostingermail-c. Add all three CNAME records. If one is missing, DKIM fails for the messages signed with that selector.

Can I keep my existing SPF record?

Yes. A domain can only have one SPF record, so add include:_spf.mail.hostinger.com to it instead of creating a second one.
