GoDaddy DNS

GoDaddy treats the Name field as relative to your domain, which is what doubles the suffix on Mailfully's DKIM records.

GoDaddy's DNS records live under My Products: select the domain, open DNS, then Manage DNS, and add each record Mailfully returned there.

Add the records

GoDaddy's record form has four fields: Type, Name, Value, and TTL, plus Priority on MX records. The Name field is relative to the zone, and GoDaddy appends acme.com on save. Enter these relative values directly, for a domain managed at the acme.com zone:

1
Add the three DKIM CNAMEs
FieldValue
TypeCNAME
Name<token>._domainkey.mail
Value<token>.dkim.amazonses.com
TTL1 Hour

Do this three times over, once per token Mailfully returned.

2
Add the MAIL FROM MX record
FieldValue
TypeMX
Namesend.mail
Valuefeedback-smtp.us-east-1.amazonses.com
Priority10
3
Add the MAIL FROM SPF record
FieldValue
TypeTXT
Namesend.mail
Valuev=spf1 include:amazonses.com ~all
4
Add the DMARC record
FieldValue
TypeTXT
Name_dmarc.mail
Valuev=DMARC1; p=none;

Read the saved records back

Don't try to settle this from GoDaddy's record list. Whether it shows a saved name in the relative form, <token>._domainkey.mail, or in full, the display says nothing about whether the zone got appended underneath it. Confirm against the dig output below: if the CNAME resolves to the DKIM target, the name is right no matter how GoDaddy shows it.

Verify

dig +short <token>._domainkey.mail.acme.com CNAME
dig +short send.mail.acme.com MX
dig +short send.mail.acme.com TXT
dig +short _dmarc.mail.acme.com TXT

GoDaddy's own record list will not settle this; the lookups will. Verify with dig gives the answer each one should return.
