Authentication & DNS

Why is my domain not verifying?

When your domain fails to verify, follow these troubleshooting steps:

  1. Check for Conflicting DNS Records: recommend tool - MxToolbox

  • Look for existing TXT or CNAME records from previous email service providers

  • If found, remove these outdated records before adding Email records

  1. Verify DNS Record Implementation:

  • Confirm records are added to the correct domain/subdomain

  • Double-check that all records match Email's provided values exactly

  • Allow 24-48 hours for DNS propagation after making changes

  1. If everything looks fine, you can submit a ticket with Bird support to get help on identifying the issue.

  1. Contact Your Domain Registrar:

  • If issues persist, your domain registrar can confirm whether DNS changes are properly implemented

  • They can also verify there are no restrictions preventing record updates
