Dummy Needs Help With Gmail Email Authentication

[Greenguy]

A couple of months ago, Google decided that when you email a gmail.com account, if your domain wasn't secure/HTTPS, the mail bounced.

FINE! I made all the domains I email from HTTPS. Happy?! NO?? Oh WTF!

Now I have to do one of these 2 things to all the domains & to be honest, I'm dumb:

Has anyone done this? Can anyone explain it to me in English?

Ask Mojo to set up DKIM etc:
Important: Starting November 2022, new senders who send email to personal Gmail accounts must set up either SPF or DKIM. Google performs random checks on new sender messages to personal Gmail accounts to verify they’re authenticated. Messages without at least one of these authentication methods will be rejected or marked as spam. This requirement doesn’t apply to you if you’re an existing sender. However, we recommend you always set up SPF and DKIM to protect your organization’s email and to support future authentication requirements.

Is this for mailers? If so, add the DKIM records to the mailer program.

Yes, it's for when I email a gmail.com address, but also for when we send out our newsletters/mailers - so do those have to be set up differently?

I am not sure honestly.
