    i can explain. If you read my posts you will notice I already said that hotmail has the dns records already setup. Your lookup confirms that is correct. You are having a problem getting it to work apparently, and in that case do you have a premium account? If so login to your hotmail account and go to the defender portal and setup the policy.

    According to public documents I posted for you, the free accounts to not support dkim signing for live, outlook, or hotmail addresses, even through DNS records exist. If you think that documentation is wrong you can use the feedback link at the bottom of the page to suggest an update. You should reach out to support because people here will not want to help if you are abusive to the community.

    Good luck

    >> free version of hotmail does not support dkim or dmarc

    How do you explain these records?

    https://easydmarc.com/tools/dkim-lookup?domain=hotmail.fr https://easydmarc.com/tools/dmarc-lookup?domain=hotmail.fr

    Oh btw, I have none of your cool certifications. I learn from experience and mostly self taught.

    I don't have problems so I'm not reaching out to anyone. Got all my DNS records setup correctly years ago.

    >>Even though you do not own hotmail.fr you can still configure dkim

    How you can configure DKIM for hotmail.fr is my question.

    and they already have DKIM as we all hope for: https://easydmarc.com/tools/dkim-lookup?domain=hotmail.fr
