I'm a techie and I'm not even 100% sure how to create a single arbitrary DNS record. So I'm not sure regular people would even have a clue on how to do that.

- antsar 8y agoMailchimp doesn't have to make this a requirement. They can offer it as an option for businesses who are concerned about making their mail not appear phishy, and have the competence to create DNS records. If you create the record, they'd make the links use your domain: https://mail.your.biz/destination?unique=123abc https://mail.your.biz/destination?unique=123abc If you don't, they can do what they do today: https://something2-x1-really-sketchy01.mailchimp.com/m0re-sketchy-x0a0sd9f0asds-stuff/destination https://something2-x1-really-sketchy01.mailchimp.com/m0re-sk... Also, there is precedent for service vendors telling companies how to configure the appropriate DNS records (with a variation for each common domain registrar).
