Topic: Set up an existing domain with iCloud Mail
Apple has is now offering to allow me to use my domain with iCloud mail. I have started the process but can configure the DNS entries correctly. Their instructions are.TXT:Record Type: TXTHost: @Value: [Enter the personal TXT record provided during set up]SPF:Record Type: TXTHost: @Value: "v=spf1 include:icloud.com ~all"If you already have an SPF record, simply add "include:icloud.com" to the value before "~all".MX:Record Type: MXHost: @Value: mx01.mail.icloud.com.Priority: 10MX:Record Type: MXHost: @Value: mx02.mail.icloud.com.Priority: 10DKIM:Record Type: CNAMEHost: sig1._domainkeyValue: sig1.dkim.example.com.at.icloudmailadmin.com.* If your registrar doesn't support “@”, enter your domain name as the host. If your registrar doesn't support quotes or trailing periods in the record values, enter the value without quotes or trailing periods. TTL should be set to 3600 seconds or 1 hour.The the problem seems to be the DKIM entry I can't change the "Host" value?Any suggestions on how to Fix.
