DKIM Configuration | Zoho Forms - User Guide

DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM)

Once you complete the DKIM configuration and get your domain verified, you can use it to send emails from Zoho Forms.

  1. After creating a form, in your form builder, navigate to Settings > General > DKIM & SMTP.              
  2. Choose a DKIM authenticated domain from the Send email via dropdown. 
  3. Henceforth, all emails for this form will be sent from the selected domain.

Note: Only if your email address contains an authenticated domain name, emails will be sent using that domain. If not, emails will be sent using the default domain from Zoho Forms.
