Setting up an Inbox Domain

Next to setting up outbound sources, you can also use Flowmailer to collect and manage your incoming email messages. 

Authenticating a Domain

Any inbox source you connect to Flowmailer has to be a domain that you've authenticated through DKIM first. To set up a new domain, follow these steps:

Adding & Authenticating Domains

Inbox Domain

  1. Setup -> Sources & API
  2. Create credentials wizard
  3. Protocol: Inbox domain
  4. Please fill out the details and select the appropriate inbox domain (as set above), and create a domain (*@domain.com is possible).
  5. Click 'visit MX records for domain' (or find under Setup -> Domains)
  6. Configure (newly shown) MX record to your DNS.
  7. Domain should now be configured as Inbox domain in Flowmailer.
  8. Optional: create a Flow and enable 'Archive' Flowstep and 'Discard' Flowstep. This is desired if you want to pull message events via the Flowmailer Api.
  9. Test!
