Google Mail (Gmail) Verification Guide

Verify an email from GitLab.com is genuine

Gmail supports three email security protocols to verify if email is genuine:

• Sender Policy Framework (SPF).
• DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM).
• Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting and Conformance (DMARC).

GitLab.com sends email that supports all three protocols to help you verify that emails that claim to originate from GitLab.com are genuine.

1. Open the email to verify.
2. On the top right side of the email, next to the reply button, select three vertical dots button and then select Show original.

4. If you see all three rows, and the row contain ‘PASS’, the email is genuine.
