AWS Route 53 setup

Operations

Adding myagentmail's records to an existing Route 53 hosted zone.

  1. Open the Route 53 console. Click Hosted zones and select your domain.
  2. Click Create record for each record.
  3. For the DKIM TXT record:
    • Record name: the selector prefix (e.g. 1234567._domainkey)
    • Record type: TXT
    • Value: the full k=rsa; p=... value, wrapped in quotes. Route 53 splits long TXT into chunks automatically.
    • TTL: 300
  4. For the CNAME bounce record: record name bounce, type CNAME, value as returned.
  5. For the MX record: record name is the subdomain (e.g. mail) or the root, type MX, value 10 mail.myagentmail.com. — note the priority prefix and trailing dot.
  6. Save and wait for propagation.
