  • 1.  Email Routing - for outbound emails via Custom SMTP integration can DKIM be used

    Posted 08-14-2025 07:19

    when sending Outbound emails from Genesys we are using Custom SMTP Integration.(Not using Genesys AWS SES) For email authentication when using Custom SMTP Integration, it uses SPF and DMARC. It doesn't use DKIM. Is there any way to use DKIM and Custom SMTP Integration?

    Hi Gita,

    If you are not using AWS SES, then I believe you would need to enable DKIM in your email server.  I have not configured this before, but maybe someone else in the community can help advise if they have configured this.

    DKIM is something you would configure on your SMTP server since that is sending the e-mails.

    DKIM is already setup on our servers. However, our messaging team have advised this won't work due to the way SMTP integration works.

    Does anyone know if they have successfully had authentication working through Custom SMTP integration?

    Hi,

    Could you elaborate on this statement ?

    However, our messaging team have advised this won't work due to the way SMTP integration works.

    SMTP integration supports 3 authentication mechanisms:

    • Basic auth (user/password)
    • OAUTH ROPC
    • OAUTH credentials flow

    If you're using Microsoft server, this article should get you on track.
