Domain Warm-Up Manager
New domains to full sending capacity on autopilot
Set up new sending domains with a realistic warm-up plan, a simple health checklist, and clear stop signs. Better as an ops guide and tracker than a fully autonomous sender.
INGREDIENTS
PROMPT
Create a skill called "Domain Warm-Up Manager". Help me set up new sending domains for cold email. For each domain, give me: a DNS setup checklist (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), mailbox creation guidance, a daily ramp plan, and a simple health tracker. Let me enter daily metrics like sends, replies, bounces, and complaints. Based on those metrics, tell me whether to keep ramping, hold steady, or pause. Also calculate how many domains and mailboxes I likely need for [X] total daily sends.
How It Works
Configure a new domain and this skill gives you a practical warm-up plan: DNS checklist, mailbox ramp schedule, daily health log, and warnings when metrics start to drift. It does not pretend to run your mail system for you. It helps you manage the process cleanly.
What You Get
- DNS setup checklist for SPF, DKIM, and DMARC
- Graduated warm-up schedule by mailbox
- Daily health tracking for sends, replies, bounces, and complaints
- Pause recommendations when a domain shows signs of trouble
- Capacity planning: how many domains and mailboxes you need for your target volume
- Rotation guidance for aging or underperforming domains
Setup Steps
- Register your new domains and create the mailboxes
- Run through the DNS checklist and verify records
- Choose your ramp schedule and max daily volume per mailbox
- Update the daily health log so the skill can spot problems early
Tips
- Start slower than you think you need
- Keep mailbox-level volume conservative until reply and bounce patterns look healthy
- Treat this as an ops workflow: log what changed each day
- Use Deliverability Watchdog alongside this to review domain health regularly
