Email Verification¶
For domain names under ICANN’s sponsorship, Gandi is required to confirm the validity of the email address of the owner’s contact handle. We therefore send out a verification email following :
the creation of a new domain contact
the domain’s creation
the domain’s transfer to Gandi (of the new owner)
an owner change
an email address change for a domain owner
Warnung
If you do not verify your email address for the owner contact, the newly registered domain name or names owned by the contact will be deactivated after 15 days.
Confirmation email from noreply@domainnameverification.net¶
To perform the verification, Gandi will send a confirmation email to the email address that you provided for the domain’s owner contact.
This confirmation email is sent from the email address, noreply@domainnameverification.net, and contains a link that you will need to click on. This link is unique to your email address but will resemble the following:
http://check.gandi.net/?hash=tnkcba1285c33a86776a20xb9987353a6a20xb285c33
For security reasons, no password will be asked of you as part of this process!! And in the event that the above link takes you to an error page, please contact customer support team.
What to do if you did not validate and your domain was suspended¶
If, for some reason, you did not validate your contact’s email address within the 15-day period that ICANN has defined, then all the domain names under that handle will be suspended. Click on the button on your domain’s contact page to resend the validation email.
