You can verify that the TXT record is properly set using:

• Online tools like MXToolBox TXT Lookup.

Hello there!

Thank you for your message and for bringing this to our attention. It appears we’ve stumbled upon a classic case of “example domain confusion” – a bit like trying to order a proper cup of tea in a coffee shop, isn’t it?

To proceed with the whitelist process, it is required to change the issue topic to reflect the actual situation regarding your domain (and domain name only). Until that’s done, I’m afraid we’ll be stuck in a bit of a holding pattern, much like a plane circling Heathrow on a foggy day.

As a gentle reminder, the RFCs concerning example domains (RFC 2606) clarify that domains like example.com, example.net, and example.org are reserved for documentation and should not be used for actual operational purposes.

Once you’ve made the necessary adjustments, we’ll be more than happy to unlock the issue and continue our merry way. Looking forward to your update!

Cheers!
