# How to Authorize Senders in MessageFlow?

{% hint style="info" %}
You can find the sender authorization settings in the MessageFlow panel under **E-mail -> Common Settings -> Senders Authorization.**
{% endhint %}

In MessageFlow, email sender configuration involves two distinct processes that serve different purposes. Understanding this difference is crucial for setting up your sending correctly:

## **Domain Authorization**

**Main purpose:** This process is for **securing your sending domain** by generating and correctly adding the appropriate DNS records (such as DKIM). This confirms the authenticity of your emails, protects your brand from impersonation, and significantly increases the deliverability and credibility of your email messages. It is an essential step for any professional email communication.

## Email Address Authorization (as a Campaign Sender in the Panel)

{% hint style="warning" %}
To effectively add an email address from which you will send your campaigns (i.e., the address visible in the "From" field of your messages), first **ensure that the domain of this address has been correctly and fully authorised.** Detailed instructions on domain authorization can be found in the [Domains Authorization](/email/sender-security/senders-authorization/how-to-authorize-senders-in-messageflow/domains-authorization.md) section.
{% endhint %}

**Main purpose:** This process is **solely for confirming that you have access to a specific email address** (e.g., `contact@yourcompany.com`) and can use it as the "From" address in email campaigns sent directly from the MessageFlow panel.
