 You can look for specific domain names and buy them using the Domain Wizard. LUCY will automatically create a DNS record for your domain and register LUCY's Public IP for the domain. We also automatically reserve a wildcard domain. So if you would reserve a domain like "webmailaccess24.com" we would make sure that all subdomains (like access.webmailaccess24.com, test.webmailaccess24.com, www.webmailaccess24.com etc.) also point to LUCY. **Make sure you leave a valid e-mail address within the domain reservation form**. Our provider will send you a confirmation mail to the registered address. If you don't confirm that e-mail within 14 days the domain will become inactive.
-**Can all domains be reserved through LUCY?**
-No. Some domains, especially those with a country code (like .us, .fr, .de etc) require additional information (e.g. proof of residence) which cannot be provided through the API. Domain names that contain typosquatted versions known brands (like dropbox, amazon etc.) will also cause problem as those brands are actively monitored.
 **How long does it take before the domain can be used in a campaign?**

   - Create a **wildcard subdomain record**: this record will allow you to use any type of subdomain in LUCY (e.g. www.yourdomain.com, test.yourdomain.com, access.yourdomain.com etc.). All subdomains will point to the same IP address. To create a wildcard record click "create new a-record" in your domain administration panel and as a host choose "*" (without the quotes) and as a value use the public IP of LUCY.
-  - Optional: Create an a-record with a host field set to "@" and as a value use your public LUCY IP address.

   - Optional: create s SPF record. In your domain administration panel click "new TXT record", then set the host field to "@" and insert the TXT Value field with your SPF record (if your IP is 208.112.99.55 then your SPF could be "v=spf1 mx a ptr ip4:208.112.99.55 ?all").
-  - Optional: create a MX record by selecting "create custom MX". As a host you should use "@" and as a value an a-record like "mail.yourdomain.com" (any a-record will work, since you created a wildcard dns record before). If necessary set a priority (e.g. "10").
