Microsoft Office 365 Domain Verification

[evetsrelfel]

I am trying to have Microsoft verifiy my domain ownership as part of the MS Office 365 set up.  The instructions are below:

I inserted both a DNS entry and an MX entry as follows:

I inserted these a couple of days ago and still MS cannot verify my domain.  Do you have any insight into how these entries may be incorrect and what i need to modify?

Thanks

Hey evetsrelfel,

It appears the TXT you added is not resolving when performing a DNS look-up. This can sometimes occur when the SPF record automatically added by BC has a lower TTL than the TXT record you have added. I have since modified the TTL of your TXT record from 1 day to 600 to match the pre-existing SPF record and I can confirm it is now resolving: http://www.dnswatch.info/dns/dnslookup?la=en&host=catcogaming.com&type=TXT&submit=Resolve

You should now be able to verify ownership of this domain.

Cheers.
