Checks the domain's DNS records against live DNS now. `verified_at` stays null until the sending identity’s DKIM verification succeeds; inbound MX, SPF, and DMARC readiness are separate. DNS propagation usually takes minutes and occasionally hours, so poll at a sane interval or subscribe to the `domain.verified` webhook instead. Domains are also rechecked in the background: a domain whose DKIM record stops resolving loses `verified_at` again and `domain.lost` is sent.
