Email authentication and certificate issuance controls all use DNS, but they solve different problems. This guide separates their roles and setup order.

How to diagnose garbled CSV or everything appearing in one Excel column

Separate CSV failures into encoding, delimiter and quoting problems instead of treating them as one issue.
