SSL Certificate for Dedicated Sending Domain (LC Email)
In this article:
When sending out emails with any links from a custom domain in LC email, it's essential to ensure you have generated an SSL certificate by verifying the domain beforehand. Failure to do so will result in a broken link when a recipient tries to open in.
By default, when a domain is created and verified, an SSL certificate will be issued. There are three statuses in SSL.
