This procedure is reserved for customers who have subscribed to the Protect Out option. If you have not subscribed to this option and still redirect your outgoing flow to Mailinblack, your mailings will be refused.
Prerequisites :
1) Before redirecting your outgoing flow to Mailinblack, be sure to configure the SPF of your domain in order to make your mailings via Mailinblack servers legitimate.
You'll need to add the value include:spf.mailinblack.com. to your SPF fields.
An SPF field must always start with v=spf1 and end with ?all / ~all / -all.
Example: v=spf1 include:spf.mailinblack.com ~all
CAUTION: Failure to configure your SPF may have an impact on your mailings, and your correspondents may not receive them.
2) The server name to which you want to send outgoing mail is correctly filled in.
In order to implement the Protect Out option, you have two possibilities depending on your mail server configurations:
Option 1: You have a dedicated mail server :
You have an in-house mail server (Exchange) or an online exchange server (Office 365) and one or more fixed (public) IPs.
To send via Mailinblack, your IP must be authorized. Go to your Mailinblack administration area, in interface Mailinblack Protect, in the Settings tab, under "Protect Out Option".
In the "Protect Out Option" section, you can add the public IP of your mail server. For Office 365 or Gsuite, simply tick the box provided.
Finally, create an outgoing connector on your mail server by configuring it to send to the server indicated in the Mailinblack Management interface, Contract tab, under the Mailinblack Protect heading, under Protect Out Option :
Here are the available procedures:
Option 2: You have a shared mail server
You have a mail server such as OVH, 1&1, Gandi, etc... or you don't have the possibility of modifying your mail server configurations.
The SMTP outgoing connector will be set up directly on the mail client (example: Outlook, Thunderbird, MailApp, ...). The authentication method will be done in SASL, which consists in authenticating yourself with your credentials used to connect to Mailinblack.
Go to your Mailinblack administration area, to the Settings tab, under "Protect Out Option" and make sure that Protect Out by authentication is enabled.
You can then configure your mail client to send your outgoing mail to Mailinblack. The server is indicated in the Licences page of your platform.
