DNS records for your own domain

You only need this page if you use a domain name of your own, such as kralendijkkoffie.com. Addresses under boneiru.online need nothing from you.

You publish DNS records at the company where you manage your domain name (your registrar or DNS host), in its “DNS” or “zone” settings. Changes can take from a few minutes to a day to be seen everywhere.

In the examples, example.com is your domain. Use exactly the names and values the product or we give you.

Your website on your own domain

Balie shows the record under Site, Domains after you add the domain (see Site settings and domains):

Name	Type	Value
_balie.www.example.com (or _balie.example.com for the domain itself)	TXT	balie-verify=... (the value Balie shows)

This record proves the domain is yours. To make the domain show your site it must also point to us: ask us for the record to add (an address or a CNAME), and we switch the domain on.

Mail on your own domain

When we set up mail on your domain (Kantoor), we give you the exact records for it. They are of these kinds:

Name	Type	What it does
example.com	MX	Where mail for your domain is delivered.
example.com	TXT v=spf1 ...	Which servers may send mail for your domain (SPF). Keep one SPF record: merge our part into an existing one.
<selector>._domainkey.example.com	TXT v=DKIM1; ...	The key that signs your outgoing mail (DKIM).
_dmarc.example.com	TXT v=DMARC1; ...	What receivers do with mail that fails the checks (DMARC).
an ownership record	TXT	Proves the domain is yours.

Without SPF, DKIM and DMARC, your mail is more likely to end up in spam.

Mail, calendar and contacts apps

These records let apps find the settings when you type your e-mail address (see Mail and calendar apps). They are optional: without them, enter the settings by hand.

Name	Type	Value	Used by
_imaps._tcp.example.com	SRV	0 1 993 kantoor.shilohbv.com.	Mail apps (IMAP)
_submissions._tcp.example.com	SRV	0 1 465 kantoor.shilohbv.com.	Mail apps (sending)
_caldavs._tcp.example.com	SRV	0 1 443 kantoor.shilohbv.com.	Calendar apps
_caldavs._tcp.example.com	TXT	path=/dav/	Calendar apps
_carddavs._tcp.example.com	SRV	0 1 443 kantoor.shilohbv.com.	Contacts apps
_carddavs._tcp.example.com	TXT	path=/dav/	Contacts apps
autoconfig.example.com	CNAME	kantoor.shilohbv.com.	Thunderbird, Evolution, KMail
autodiscover.example.com	CNAME	kantoor.shilohbv.com.	Outlook
_autodiscover._tcp.example.com	SRV	0 0 443 kantoor.shilohbv.com.	Outlook

Caution

autoconfig and autodiscover also need a step on our side (a certificate for those names). Tell us when you publish them. iPhone and Mac do not use these records for mail: use the Apple profile instead (see iPhone and iPad).

Do not publish the plain variants _caldav._tcp, _carddav._tcp, _imap._tcp or _submission._tcp.

Your web shop on your own domain

Your Tienda web shop can have its own address, such as shop.example.com. Tell us the address; we give you the record to point it to us and set up the certificate. Then enter the address under Settings, Shop Fronts, Domain (see Your web shop).

Check your records

On a computer with a terminal you can check a record yourself, for example:

dig +short TXT _balie.www.example.com
dig +short SRV _imaps._tcp.example.com
dig +short MX example.com

Online DNS lookup tools show the same.
