      Update your existing TXT BIMI Record to EasyDMARC's Managed BIMI Solution


      1. Access Your DNS Control Panel:
      • Log in to your DNS hosting provider's control panel using your credentials.
      • Locate the DNS management section or DNS settings.

      2. Find and Delete Your Existing BIMI TXT Record:
      • In your DNS control panel, locate the existing BIMI TXT record associated with your domain, The record should have "default._bimi" as its Host or Name and the values should start with "v=BIMI1".

      • Select the option to edit the record.
      • Confirm the deletion when prompted.

      3. Add a New CNAME Record:
      • Look for an option to add DNS records.
      • Select "CNAME Record" from the available record types.



      4. Define the Host/Name for the CNAME Record:

      • In the "Host" or "Name" field, enter "default._bimi" (without the quotes). This specifies that the CNAME record is for BIMI.



      5. Set the Value/Points To:
      • In the "Value" or "Text" field, you will define your BIMI record. Copy the value obtained from your Managed BIMI portal and paste it into the Value/Target section
