Register domain for verification

Deprecated

POST

/v1/domains

curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.mailerdash.com/v1/domains \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{ "domain": "mycompany.com" }'

• Production
• Local development

DEPRECATED — use the dashboard domain-centric flow (POST /v1/client/domains then POST /v1/client/domains/{domain}/verify), which manages the account-level domain (ownership + verification, the source of truth for send authorization). This key-scoped endpoint still works and now also writes the account-level domain, but the domain-centric endpoints are the supported path. Starts domain ownership verification. Returns TXT record to add to DNS.
