DKIM Challenge in Salesforce Sandboxes: A Practical Workaround
Salesforce now mandates that all user‑authored emails use a verified domain via DKIM or an Authorized Email Domain. In sandbox environments, DKIM must be configured per instance and is lost after each refresh, making maintenance cumbersome. Unverified domains cause Apex, Flow, and test‑class emails to fail, potentially blocking deployments. Enabling the "Use a substitute email address for unverified domains" setting lets sandboxes send mail through a Salesforce‑generated address while preserving the sender’s name and reply routing.
