We are using AWS SES to send transactional emails from a web application. We are currently facing Gmail delivery issues where emails are being rejected or bouncing. The bounce notifications indicate authentication problems. Current Setup: Domain-based sending DNS hosted on Cloudflare Email sending via AWS SES (transactional emails from application) SPF record includes SES and other providers DKIM CNAME records added in DNS SES console still shows DKIM as “Not configured” Gmail headers show: dkim=none dmarc=none DNS propagation appears correct globally. The Problem: Gmail rejecting emails Bounce messages from Amazon SES MAILER-DAEMON DKIM not verifying in SES Need to confirm region alignment and identity configuration Need full authentication alignment What I Need: An experienced AWS SES / email deliverability expert to: Diagnose why DKIM is not verifying Confirm correct SES region configuration Validate SPF, DKIM, DMARC setup Check SPF DNS lookup limits Verify identity configuration in SES Ensure Gmail authentication passes Optimize configuration for stable deliverability Final Expected Result: When checking Gmail “Show Original”, authentication should show: SPF = PASS DKIM = PASS DMARC = PASS No bounce errors. Stable Gmail delivery. Access Will Be Provided After Hiring: AWS SES access DNS access (Cloudflare) Test email account SMTP configuration details Required Experience: AWS SES (SMTP + Identity configuration) Cloudflare DNS SPF / DKIM / DMARC Email deliverability troubleshooting

Your DKIM verification failure in SES despite having CNAME records in Cloudflare is almost certainly a region mismatch or identity misconfiguration — I've resolved this exact issue multiple times. The most common culprit is that the DKIM CNAME records were generated in one SES region (e.g., us-east-1) but the verified identity or SMTP endpoint is configured in another, causing SES to report "Not configured" even with correct DNS propagation. My approach: I'll audit your SES identity configuration and region alignment, verify all three CNAME DKIM records match the active region, validate your SPF record stays under the 10-lookup limit, configure a proper DMARC policy, and run test sends until Gmail shows SPF=PASS, DKIM=PASS, and DMARC=PASS. I can start immediately and have deep hands-on experience with AWS SES, Cloudflare DNS, and email authentication troubleshooting.

Hi, there. I understand the frustration of dealing with deliverability issues, especially when DKIM and DMARC are not passing, leading to Gmail bounces and rejected emails. With extensive experience in configuring and troubleshooting AWS SES, Cloudflare DNS, and authentication protocols like SPF, DKIM, and DMARC, I can help resolve these authentication failures. I have worked with multiple clients to align SES region and domain identity settings, validate and optimize DNS records, and ensure that all email authentication checks pass in Gmail and other major providers. My approach will involve a thorough audit of your SES identity and region configuration, a detailed review and correction of SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records in Cloudflare, and verification of SMTP setup to ensure full authentication alignment. I will also check for SPF DNS lookup limits and other subtle issues that can impact deliverability. My goal is to ensure that your transactional emails achieve consistent inbox placement, with all authentication results passing as expected. Best regards Boris

Hi! I can help diagnose and fully resolve the Gmail delivery and DKIM authentication issue with your AWS SES setup. Based on your description (DKIM showing “Not configured”, dkim=none and dmarc=none in Gmail headers), this is likely related to SES identity/region alignment or DNS authentication records not being validated correctly by SES rather than a propagation issue. I will: • Verify SES identity configuration and region alignment • Diagnose why DKIM is not verifying in SES • Validate SPF structure and check DNS lookup limits • Configure and verify DKIM + DMARC correctly via Cloudflare DNS • Confirm MAIL FROM and authentication alignment • Test end-to-end delivery and analyze Gmail headers until SPF, DKIM, and DMARC all PASS • Optimize setup for stable Gmail deliverability going forward Estimated time: 2–4 hours (depending on identity configuration). Estimated cost: 5000 I can start immediately once access to AWS SES, Cloudflare DNS, and a test mailbox is shared.
