Validating Outgoing Email Addresses

To ensure your clients receive ticket updates and notifications from your PSA instance, you'll need to connect and authenticate your outgoing email addresses in the Email Settings section on the System Settings screen. Authenticated emails are less likely to be flagged as spam, keeping your service desk communications reliable and professional. For more information about the fields available in the Email Settings category, see the System Settings: Email Settings article. 

Follow the steps below to validate your outgoing email addresses.

1. On the sidebar menu, select the Admin module.
    
2. Click the System Settings subcategory. 
    
3. Click the Email Settings section on the System Settings screen. 
    
4. In the Outgoing Email Address field, enter the email address you want your customers to see when they receive emails for their tickets.
    
5. Click the Save button to save the entered address and send a validation email to the email address belonging to the user logged into Rev.io PSA. NOTE: The validation email is NOT sent to the email address entered in the Outgoing Email Address field.
   
    
6. Forward the email with the authentication information to your IT team or DNS provider. They will need to click the link in the email, follow the instructions there to install DNS records, and click the I'm Done button when they've finished.
   
    
7. Once you receive confirmation from your IT team or DNS provider that the setup is complete, return to the Email Settings screen and click the Validate button. If the email address is properly configured, you'll see a green "Validated on MM/DD/YYYY" message near the field. If the email address is not properly configured, you'll receive an error message.
   
    
8. Repeat steps 4-8 in the Workflow Outgoing Email Address field for the email address you want recipients to see when receiving workflow notifications. NOTE: If you enter an email address using the same domain as the Outgoing Email Address, you will not need to validate again.
