Square needs to support our many SPF / DKIM requests and own this issue

[nsilvialafrance]

I am going to create a thread as often as I can until someone at Square acknowledges the many threads asking for this information. Square needs to acknowledge that this is not "out of scope" for them to provide this information. There are thread after thread of people explaining the technical reasons why Square/Weebly are the ones that need to provide us the DNS records for SPF/DKIM to be able to deliver mail sent by them on behalf of our domain. 

Another user in another thread phrased it best: "Square/Weebly is SENDING as YOUR domain from their SMTP servers, so yes without a doubt they need to provide a DKIM record for THEIR sending servers...this is common place for any sender acting as your domain via their servers now.  I've been around this circle with them for months with nobody that understands it."

You are using weebly.com and sendgrid.com to send emails ON BEHALF of my domain. You are the ones that need to provide the records for us to add in our domains DNS. If I was sending the emails using my own server, which we do for marketing, I have the appropriate records set up for our vendor - Brevo. Sending us a generic link to a Cloudflare page on how DMARC and SPF and DKIM works is rather offensive. We understand how it works, that is why we keep begging for Square to provide what we need.

You need to provide us with this information or your emails you are sending on behalf of our domain will continue to not be verified and will likely land in customers Junk. We are trying very hard to do everything right here, but Square continues to prove that it is not knowledgeable about DMARC and DKIM and thus our customers are suffering because of it.

Do you see how many people disagree with your answer and Square's stance on this? When will someone at Square take ownership of this and realize that you are running away from the issue rather than actually addressing it? It's truly sad to spend so much money on Square services and processing but know that deep down they don't even want to help or understand how to help with anything technical. 

As someone else already said: "Dear god this is ridiculous.  Tell your CTO to call me I can explain it to them"

Completely ignoring the issue and we turned on square online and yep...aol customers are complaining about notifications always going to spam...this can be fixed they just don't want to understand the aspects of DKIM on the weebly side..

[nsilvialafrance]

I have never seen such pervasive ignorance from a company that wants our business. Absolutely embarrassing for Square and Weebly to take such an ignorant standpoint on this topic.

All they need to do is address the bottom two capabilities...

It's completely unbelievable and not a difficult item to correct.  We send confirmation e-mails for orders out to folks for concerts at our church and they, of course, are all going to junk e-mail or spam.  Doesn't matter if we are using DMARC (we are) - these things are failing SPF/DKIM at one level or another.

By not addressing such a simple issue, Square is effectively barring us from communicating with our customers through their system.

We've been with Square for years and years, but this issue is causing me to research other providers for what we do.  We can't operate like this.  We look - and are - unprofessional to our congregation, community, and staff by allowing this to continue.

I have been pleased with Square for so long that I don't even know who the competition is.  But I'm about to find out.  And I hate that.

Yes, this is totally unacceptable! We are buying their services and part of their services is communicating with our customers. I mean come on, when even an order confirmation goes to a customers spam folder, this is so messed up! I also paid $300 for Promote Weebly and it has the same issue. I've wasted months of this service an unable to send an authenticated email.

I am experiencing SPF unalighnment. I spent money on MX tool Box and countless of hours trying to figure it out with Weebly, Square, SendGrid and Google. After about 25 emails with sendgrid, they still could not fix it. 

It has boiled down to:

The return path and from path are different!

From MX ToolBox:

The Delivery Information at the top will give a summary of what is broken. In this case your SPF and DKIM are not aligned. This is due to the return path domains being weebly.com and the from path being templeoflifeoils.com

Weebly/Square, I need a solution!

Very well put. Through some investigation we were able to determine that adding +include:sendgrid.net to our SPF record improved email deliverability. However, this information was not obtained from Square/Weebly documentation. 

Still without DKIM we are unable to reach Gmail users inboxes, and other mail providers are (rightfully) following in Google's footsteps.

We are also unable to set our DMARC policy to reject until Square/Weebly resolves this issue.

It'd be great if they were not just completely ignoring this issue, as reaching inboxes one of the most important things an e-commerce platform needs to get right. Not to mention an e-commerce platform that wants to handle your email campaigns/marketing needs....
