+. The Name    -    x._domainkey
+. The TTL     -    3600
+. The Type    -    TXT

+==== Find your DMarc Record ====
+This one is not quite as simple, below is a paragraph from MXRouting regarding DMARC.
+    Sometimes customers will ask us what their DMARC record should be. This question actually arises from a
+    misunderstanding of what DMARC is. The honest, quick answer is that there is no answer. Your DMARC record is
+    a choice that you either make or don’t make, and what you set it to is entirely based on your preferences and
+    needs. If you don’t know what you want a DMARC record to be, your default should be not to have one. If you
+    do want one, you have no choice but to dive in deeper into what it is because simply offering one to paste in
+    your DNS isn’t appropriate.
+The simple answer is, the admin for our email server in MXRouting has generated a DMARC record, and all domains and accounts that are associated with our email server use the same DMARC record, we just change the domain listed within the record.
+\\
+\\
+Here are the DMARC Details.
+\\
+\\
+    Type    -    TXT
+    Host    -    _dmarc
+    Answer  -    v=DMARC1; p=quarantine: rua=mailto;ukgreenn@therlowe.uk
