How to Set Up SPF, DKIM, and DMARC Records in cPanel for Better Email Deliverability

Email deliverability is one of the most common pain points for cPanel users. You might have configured everything correctly only to find your messages landing in spam folders or bouncing back entirely. More often than not, the culprit is missing or misconfigured email authentication records.
