\ \ Hello dear readers, as I am configuring my site, everything is subject to becoming a tutorial.\ This is also the case today with this little tutorial on:\ **How to get a custom address with Proton Mail**\ (You need the Proton Unlimited subscription!). ## What is it??? When purchasing a domain name, some registrars offer a mailbox with storage and a number of addresses to allocate like:\ **contact@mydomain.com**\ Otherwise, they can be offered for a few euros per month. Here, it's the same thing, except it's provided in addition to all the other benefits of Proton Unlimited. *A custom email domain is an email domain that you own. Some email services allow you to replace their generic domain with your own. For example, you@yourname.com can point to a Proton Mail server, a Gmail server, or even a private mail server that you own. Emails always know where to find you thanks to an Internet routing system that happens behind the scenes.* [cf. The Proton blog](https://proton.me/blog/custom-email-domain#custom-email-domain) ## How to take advantage 1. Have an Unlimited account and go to Domain Name

2. Add the domain name you own

3. Add the DNS TXT records to verify that the domain name belongs to you

4. Add the DNS MX records

5. Add the DNS TXT SPF records

6. Add the DNS TXT DKIM records

7. Add the DNS TXT DMARC records

8. Here is what your DNS records should look like

9. Finally, add the addresses you want to your account

## The test A small test by sending an email from Proton to myself...

## Some comments There you go, a simple and quick tutorial. The same thing exists with [Google](https://support.google.com/a/answer/172171?hl=en) and [Outlook](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/email/change-email-address?view=o365-worldwide), but no encryption like Proton. However, it's free.
