Domain on nic.ru (RU-CENTER)

To link a domain, you need to be its owner and verify it.

If you plan to use the domain to send and receive corporate mail, configure the DNS records for it. If you delegate your domain to Yandex DNS servers, the records are configured automatically, and you can manage them directly in Yandex 360 for Business.

Important. It can take up to 72 hours for records to update. To check if a record has been updated, click Check in Yandex 360 for Business.

Verify your domain

Attention. If you transfer your company data from another platform, we recommend that you first import mailboxes, and then configure DNS records. After the records are configured, mail will be delivered to Yandex Mail mailboxes.

Configure DNS records

There are two ways to configure the DNS records required for Yandex Mail for Business:

If you delegate your domain to Yandex servers, all records are configured automatically.
If you don't want to delegate your domain to Yandex servers, set up the DNS records for your domain on nic.ru.

Delegating a domain means transferring domain management to the selected DNS server. You can delegate the domain to Yandex DNS servers, which will then store and manage service information about your domain.

If you delegate your domain:

The DNS records required for Yandex Mail (MX, SPF, and DKIM) are configured automatically.
You can manage DNS records directly in Yandex 360 for Business.

To delegate your domain to Yandex servers:

In the client section, select My domains.
In the DNS servers block on the delegation panel, click Delegate and specify the following values:
- 1: dns1.yandex.net.
- 2: dns2.yandex.net.
Go to the domain management page and make sure your domain status is Delegated.

If you want your domain address to redirect users to your website, make sure that the website address is linked to the domain name. To do this, check the domain A records in the DNS editor in Yandex 360 for Business.

Configure an MX record

An MX record points to the server that receives mail for your domain. If you want a Yandex server to process your mail, you have to create an MX record that points to this server.

To create an MX record manually:

In the domain block from Step 3 of the domain verification instructions, delete the existing MX records.
Add a new MX record with the following field values:
- Name: @.
  Note. If you want to use a subdomain in Yandex 360 for Business, for example, to send emails from addresses like login@subdomain.example.org (where example.org is your domain), then enter the name of the subdomain in the Name field (in the example, it's subdomain).
- Type: MX.
- Priority: 10.
- Mail Relay: mx.yandex.net.
In the message about uploading changes, click Upload zone.

Set up an SPF record

SPF records reduce the risk of an email from an address on your domain ending up in the recipient's spam folder. To configure an SPF record, create a TXT record with a list of servers that are used to send mail from your domain.

To create an SPF record manually:

In the domain block from Step 3 of the domain verification instructions, delete the existing TXT records that contain v=spf1.
Add a new TXT record with the following field values:
- Name: @.
  
  Note. If you want to use a subdomain in Yandex 360 for Business, for example, to send emails from addresses like login@subdomain.example.org (where example.org is your domain), then enter the name of the subdomain in the Name field (in the example, it's subdomain).
- Type: TXT.
- Text: v=spf1 redirect=_spf.yandex.net
  If you want to send email from non-Yandex servers as well, specify the additional servers in the following format:
  v=spf1 ip4:IP-1 ip4:IP-2 ip4:IP-3 include:_spf.yandex.net ~all
  Where IP-1, IP-2, and IP-3 are the IP addresses of additional servers.
- TTL: 21600.
In the message about uploading changes, click Upload zone.

Configure a DKIM signature

With a DKIM signature, the email recipient can be sure a message actually came from the alleged sender. To set up a DKIM signature for emails sent from your domain, create a TXT record with a public signature key for your domain.

To configure a DKIM signature manually:

Log in to the admin account for the company.
Go to the Domains page.
Click Add DKIM next to the domain name you want to add a signature for.

If the required domain is not in the list, make sure it is connected and verified.
Under Configure DKIM signature, copy the public key value for your domain.
In the domain block (Step 3 of the domain verification instructions), add a new TXT record with the following field values:
- Name: mail._domainkey.
  
  Note. If you want to use a subdomain in Yandex 360 for Business, for example, to send emails from addresses like login@subdomain.example.org (where example.org is your domain), then enter the name of the subdomain in the Name field (in the example, it's subdomain).
- Type: TXT.
- Text: The public key value you received in Step 4.
  For example, v=DKIM1; k=rsa; t=s; p=MIGfMA0GCSEBtaCOteH4EBqJlKpe...
- TTL: 21600.
In the message about uploading changes, click Upload zone.

Check the domain's DNS records and make sure they are updated and configured correctly.
