Generate DNS Records

What It Does

Accepts a domain plus comma-separated provider list (google_workspace, microsoft_365, sendgrid, mailgun, amazon_ses, mailchimp, zoho, fastmail, etc.) plus optional DMARC policy and MTA-STS mode. Looks up each provider in an internal provider table and emits the canonical SPF include, DKIM selector(s), and MX hints. Assembles the full SPF record under the 10-lookup limit. Formats DMARC with rua= pointing to a configurable address. Emits a complete MTA-STS policy file (version/mode/mx/max_age) and the companion DNS records. Returns record name, type, TTL, and value for each, ready to paste into DNS management.

Why It's Useful

Writing these records from scratch is error-prone — small syntax errors silently disable the policy. A generator eliminates that class of bug and gives teams a starting point they can diff against an existing configuration.
