How to setup mailchannels integration on Cloudflare Pages app with a custom domain?

I made it work on workers, nothing complicated there, but it doesn't seem to work with pages. Mailchannels just returns Error: Mailchannels API rejected: Failed to send email: 550 5.7.1 This sender is not authorized to send from.... I've set up the _mailchannels TXT record like this v=mc1 cfid=namespace.workers.dev cfid=namespace2.workers.dev cfid=customdomain.com and it still does not work with the custom domain.

Am I missing something?

Have you tried adding the pages.dev domain as an allowed one?

Erisa•6mo ago

this^ you need to add the projects pages.dev subdomain as the cfid, as that is where the function runs

gonna try that right now That's why we need the dev community =) Thanks folks! It's such an easy solution but still I didn't think of it

hi @maddsua are you using MailChannels on production? have you experience any rate limit?

Hey! I don't send huge amounts of email, but I've seen stats with 100k successful requests per day. It's not like you're gonna lose something if you try it, right?

would there be any other reason this error is getting thrown ? my txt record is

v=mc1 cfid=project.pages.dev cfid=namespace.workers.dev cfid=customdomain.com cfid=sub.customdomain.com

v=mc1 cfid=project.pages.dev cfid=namespace.workers.dev cfid=customdomain.com cfid=sub.customdomain.com

and the error i get back is
