Description

Adds a bce.email Domain Connect template for inbound email routing. The template creates the Amazon SES domain verification TXT record and the apex MX record required for bce.email to receive inbound mail for a customer domain.

Type of change

Please mark options that are relevant.

  • New template
  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue in the template)
  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality in the template)
  • Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing template behavior to be not backward compatible)

How Has This Been Tested?

Please mark the following checks done

  • Template functionality checked using Online Editor
  • Template file name follows the pattern <providerId>.<serviceId>.json
  • resource URL provided with logoUrl is actually served by a webserver

Tested locally with:

dc-template-linter -loglevel error -tolerate info -logos bce.email.bceemail.json

Checklist of common problems

Mark all the checkboxes after conducting the check. Comment on any point which is not fulfilled.
See Template Quality Guidelines for details and rationale on each rule.

  • syncPubKeyDomain is set — this is mandatory; omitting it requires explicit justification in the PR description or the PR will be rejected
  • warnPhishing is not set alongside syncPubKeyDomain — the two must not appear together
  • syncRedirectDomain is set whenever the template uses redirect_uri in the synchronous flow
  • no TXT record contains SPF content ("v=spf1 ...") — use the SPFM record type instead
  • txtConflictMatchingMode is set on every TXT record that must be unique per label or content prefix (e.g. DMARC)
  • no variable is used as a bare full record value (e.g. @ TXT "%foo%") unless necessary — prefer @ TXT "service-foo=%foo%"; if bare, justify in the PR description
  • no bare variable is used as the full host label — the non-variable parts are fixed to limit misuse (e.g. %dkimkey%._domainkey, not %dkimhost%); if bare, justify in the PR description
  • no variable is used in the host field to create a subdomain — use the host parameter or multiInstance instead
  • %host% does not appear explicitly in any host attribute
  • essential is set to OnApply on records the end user may need to modify or remove without breaking the template (e.g. DMARC)

Bare TXT value justification: Amazon SES prescribes the exact TXT record value for domain verification at _amazonses.<domain>. Adding a service-specific prefix would make SES verification fail.

essential justification: the TXT and MX records are the activation records for this service and should remain managed as part of the template.
