    I added custom DKIM, SPF and DMARC to my zone templates.

    When I reset a zone, it duplicated those entries each time it is reset.

    What can I do to prevent this?

    My Custom Entries:


    %domain%. %nsttl% IN TXT "v=spf1 mx include:send.aweber.com -all"

    default._domainkey IN TXT "v=DKIM1; k=rsa; p=blahblahblahblah\;

    _dmarc.%domain%. IN TXT "v=DMARC1; p=none; sp=none; rua=mailto:blah@gmail.com!10m; ruf=mailto:blah@gmail.com!10m; rf=afrf; pct=100; ri=86400"    ​

    Hello,

    Custom TXT entries are preserved when resetting a DNS Zone. This is referenced in the confirmation message:

    You'd have to temporarily remove the custom TXT records from the zone template before resetting a zone to prevent the duplicate records. I recommend opening a feature request for the ability to disable TXT record preservation during zone resets via:

    Thank you.
