Step 4 - Validate Domains
You need to prove you own a domain before it can be used with CSEG. This is done by completing the domain control validation (DCV) process. There are a couple of ways to do this:
- You can complete DCV by configuring your MX record for the domain as explained in Step 2
- You can complete DCV by answering a challenge-response email sent to postmaster@ on the domain in question. Follow the instructions below if you wish to use this method:
1. Click the 'Domains' tab on the left to open the 'Domains' area.
2. Select the domain that you want to validate.
3. Click the 'Validate domain' button
This opens the validate domain dialog:
A mail containing the validation code will have been sent to postmaster@your-domain.com immediately after adding a domain. Click 'Resend email' to send this mail again.
-
Copy the code from the mail, paste it into the field provided and click 'OK'
CSEG will verify the code and, if successful, the domain is activated.
