Google Workspace SPF/DKIM alignment fails for alias domain (Cloudflare DNS)
I'm using Cloudflare for DNS on two domains in one Google Workspace account. [Domain2.com.au](http://Domain2.com.au) added as alias domain.
For example1.com: DMARC/SPF/DKIM all pass fine.
For example2.com.au: DMARC/SPF/DKIM Fails.
To make it work I'm using "v=DMARC1; p=none; ....
I have SPF example2.com.au: "v=spf1 ip4:\[myhostip\] include:\_spf.google.com include:spf.hostingplatform.net.au \~all"
I add the 2nd account in "Send as" address in Gmail.
Issue: Emails sent "From: example2.com.au" via Gmail login for example1.com show Envelope From as example1.com.
Expected SPF to pass since both use Google Workspace servers, but alignment fails
But all DMARC/SPF/DKIM Fails
Can this be fixed While using Gmail for send as? does it make a difference if I add the second domain as a secondary domain rather than an alias for the primary domain? if I need to do this and I need to delete the existing domain will I lose anything
this feels more about execution than intent That part stands out. That’s just how it reads to me. That’s the impression it gives me.
If you zoom out, this solves one problem while creating another Hard to say where this lands long term. That’s just my read on it.
From a practical angle, the wording alone shifts how people read this and that friction is hard to ignore That’s the impression it gives me.
Without overthinking it, the follow-through is what will decide this and that’s where it gets complicated Not convinced this is settled yet.
At this point, this feels like a half-step, not a full move and that’s the part people are stuck on That part stands out. At least from my perspective.
From my side, the wording alone shifts how people read this Feels like there’s more coming here.

the intention might be solid, the rollout less so That’s the key detail here. Interested to see the follow-up.
Real talk, the direction makes sense but the details are messy which explains why reactions are split That’s what changes the context. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
Reaction: Me_irl
I get the idea, the framing does a lot of heavy lifting here which makes the reaction pretty predictable
From my side, there’s a gap between the message and the outcome which turns this into more of a debate Let’s see what happens next. At least from my perspective.

Just reading this, the wording alone shifts how people read this and that tension shows up immediately That part stands out.

Stepping back, this solves one problem while creating another That’s just my read on it.
If you zoom out, the logic is there, but the execution is uneven so the response doesn’t surprise me That’s what makes this interesting. Interested to see the follow-up.

From my side, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage Curious how this plays out.
Reaction: Too real..

Reaction: Its so lame which is why I dont watch him no more because to lose by something out of your control is so lame. Imagine if shows like Ninja Warrior were the only way to win was by the audienc
