Domain authentication

Domain authentication helps Sayless verify that your workspace can send or receive email for a domain.

Add a domain

Add the domain you want to authenticate from Email settings.

Verify DNS records

Sayless shows DNS records that need to be added with your DNS provider.

Validation status

Review the domain status to see whether authentication is complete.

Delete a domain

Delete a domain when it should no longer be used by the workspace.

Email forwarding

Forwarding sends incoming email into Sayless.

Forwarding address

Use the forwarding address shown in settings with your email provider.

Test forwarding

Send a test when you want to confirm forwarding is working.

Incoming conversations

Once forwarding is active, incoming messages appear in the inbox as conversations.

Troubleshooting

Most email setup issues happen outside Sayless, usually in DNS or the email provider.

DNS issues

If authentication does not validate, confirm the DNS records match exactly and have had time to propagate.
DNS changes can take time to propagate. If records are correct but validation still fails, wait and retry validation before changing the records again.

Forwarding failures

If messages do not appear in Sayless, check the forwarding rule, sender address, and spam settings.
