Remember those SPF, DKIM & DMARC errors/warning messages that appeared when you set up the GSuite email and then sent the test email using WP SMTP? Well, now that the account is at least 72 hours old, it’s time to set up these records so that those error/warning messages will go away.
Remember, the purpose of adding in the SPF, DKIM & DMARC records is to improve the deliverability of emails — basically doing our best to keep them out of the spam folder.

- This article is the written reference I’m using in the video, for setting up the SPF & DKIM records
- This is the YouTube video on setting up DMARC records for GSuite that I’m referring to in the Loom
After watching the video, you’ll recall how I referenced that “Start Authentication” process for verifying the DKIM setup.
