Resend sends through Amazon SES: the include goes on its send subdomain (send.example.com), with an MX record there for bounces.

DKIM: A TXT record at resend._domainkey with the key from the Resend dashboard.

A domain can have only one SPF record. If you already send through another service, add the include to your existing record rather than creating a second one, and keep the total under 10 DNS lookups.

Once SPF and DKIM pass, add a DMARC record at _dmarc with p=none and a reporting address, read the reports for a couple of weeks, then move to quarantine and reject.

Questions

What is the SPF record for Resend?
v=spf1 include:amazonses.com ~all. If you also send through other services, add their includes to the same record.
Where do I find the DKIM record for Resend?
A TXT record at resend._domainkey with the key from the Resend dashboard.
Do I need DMARC with Resend?
Yes. Gmail and Yahoo require DMARC for bulk senders, and it is what stops others sending as your domain. Start with p=none and move to reject.
How long do new SPF and DKIM records take to work?
As soon as resolvers see them, usually within minutes; at most the old record's TTL. Use the checker above to confirm.
