   - Create another "TXT" record (i.e. This will be the DMARC record)   - Create another "TXT" record (i.e. This will be the DMARC record)
 +    - The host name for this record has to be _dmarc
 +    - The value specifies where to send reports of abuse of one's domain name.
 +    - There is an online tool to help with the creation of the value of this record:
 +      - https://dmarcian.com/dmarc-record-wizard/ (there could be other's, this was just the first one I found)
 +  - Create yet another "TXT" record (this is the final one and it is the DKIM record)
 +    - This record will allow for the verification of the signage on the email that is placed by the MTA((Mail Transport Agent)) using a private key and the DKIM record has the public key. Thus emails can be verified against the DNS record.
 +    - **Note:** DKIM capabilities is currently __not__ available in Synchronet.
 +      - None-the-less, having the other records should help alleviate emails from being marked as junk/spam mail.

 +=== Validation Check ===
 +  * There are a couple of sites that can help with validating that the records are setup correctly:
 +    * https://mxtoolbox.com/MXLookup.aspx (Click the 'MX Lookup' button, then click the 'Find Problems' button)
 +    * https://www.dmarcanalyzer.com/spf/checker/ (under tools menu one can select dmarc also)
 +  * Check for any errors and correct them. If most every check turns up 'Green', then the records should be correct.
 +    * //Note: If your SPF record doesn't have an DNS/IP address that is used in delivering the email, the email will still be flagged as junk/spam//
