Amazon SES TXT and CNAME records

[sam_dev2020]

Hi guys

Anyone had any luck with Amazons DNS records? I'm trying to configure Amazon SES and its just not working. Under zone editor > add a new record, i selected TXT and set TTL to 300.

Lets say my amazon TXT record is something like :

_amazonses.example.com TXT pmBGN/7MjnfhTKUZ06Enqq1PeGUaOkw8lGhcfwefcHU=

How can i configure this properly? Under "Record Name" should I enter :

1) just _amazonses
2) _amazonses.example.com
3) or _amazonses.example.com. (with a .)

which one is correct?

Thanks!

1 & 3 are functionally equal. Your choice.
