BT DNS character limit

jcsj — Tue, 01 Dec 2015 14:53:21 GMT

Hi,

Our DNS is hosted by BT and we have an Exchange server that I am trying to set up DKIM on. This requires me to create a TXT record with a rather large Value that contains 225 characters, however BT's DNS manager only seems to allow 130 characters.

Does anyone know of a way around this?

Thanks.

Hi jcsj,

If you need the character limit to be more than 130, the domain management centre wont allow it, but if you contact our domain name team via www.dnsforms.co.uk they have a ability to put in records that are longer than this for you.

Thanks
