About SPF

What SPF does for you

01

Authorizes senders

SPF lists which servers may send mail for your domain, so receivers can reject spoofed mail.

02

10-lookup limit

SPF allows max 10 DNS lookups. Go over and validation fails — we count yours for you.

03

End with ~all or -all

A soft (~all) or hard (-all) fail qualifier tells receivers how to treat unlisted senders.

SPF (Sender Policy Framework) is a TXT DNS record listing the servers authorized to send email for your domain. Receivers use it to detect spoofing.

Ensure there's exactly one SPF record, it starts with v=spf1, includes every legitimate sender, stays under 10 DNS lookups, and ends with ~all or -all.

SPF permits a maximum of 10 DNS lookups during evaluation. Too many includes push you over the limit and cause SPF to fail — flatten or consolidate.

Yes — all three. SPF authorizes senders, DKIM signs messages, and DMARC ties them together with a policy. Together they maximize deliverability.
