Namecheap Advanced DNS for sender authentication.

22 October 2026

Use Advanced DNS, not the basic parking panel. Host values are relative: @, _dmarc, google._domainkey.

Publish records

  1. Domain List → Manage → Advanced DNS.
  2. Add TXT Record for SPF on host @.
  3. Add CNAME or TXT records for each DKIM selector from your ESP.
  4. Add TXT on _dmarc, or CNAME on _dmarc to the Hosted DMARC target.
  5. Save; Namecheap may take a few minutes to answer publicly.

Hosted DMARC on this provider

If you use Sender Identity Hosted DMARC, delete the TXT at _dmarc and publish only this CNAME. We publish the DMARC TXT on our side, starting at p=none with rua at reports.senderidentity.com.

TypeName / hostValue / points toNote
CNAME_dmarc.brand.examplebrand.example._dmarc.hosted.senderidentity.comDNS only on Cloudflare. Remove any TXT at the same name.

After the CNAME resolves, open Account on the site, confirm delegation shows ready, and keep reading aggregate reports before you approve quarantine or reject.

Check the result

  1. Wait for DNS TTL (often 5 minutes to an hour).
  2. Run the free static audit on the domain.
  3. Confirm the DMARC check shows the policy you expect, and that a CNAME path is not blocked by a leftover TXT.
