Namecheap DNS Setup for OquMail: MX, SPF, DKIM & DMARC
Step-by-step Namecheap Advanced DNS for business email — copy-paste MX and TXT records, verify propagation, and avoid common registrar mistakes.
Namecheap hosts DNS for millions of domains. Adding OquMail mail is a matter of MX plus three TXT records — no nameserver change required.
Where to click in Namecheap
- Domain List → Manage → Advanced DNS
- Add MX records (the settings that tell the internet where to deliver email for your domain) pointing to mail.oqumail.com (priority 10)
- Add SPF TXT at @ with the value OquMail provides
- Add DKIM TXT at the selector host (e.g. oqu._domainkey)
- Add DMARC TXT at _dmarc
- Remove old MX records from previous email hosts
Propagation
Namecheap usually updates within minutes. Use OquMail’s verify button after each record — green checks mean receivers worldwide will authenticate your mail correctly.
