It is quite straightforward if your custom domain email is setup using Microsoft 365 Exchange or Google Workspace.

However, if your custom domain is setup by your domain supplier (Godaddy, Crazy Domains etc) then you will need to contact that supplier to find out details of how to make their email compliant. There will probably be a charge to set it up.
