A Sender Policy Framework (SPF)Record is a type of TXT record that identifies which mail servers are permitted to send email on behalf of your domain. The purpose of an SPF record is to detect and prevent spammers from sending messages with forged "From" addresses on your domain.
Note: Note If you have already implemented SPF using TXT records, the SPF and TXT records must match. Copy and paste the TXT record's Record Value field to the SPF record. |
An SPF record consists of the following three fields:
-
Host - The hostname for the record, entered as either a simple, one-part name, or as a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) with or without a trailing dot. Examples:
-
hostname
-
hostname.example.biz
-
hostname.example.biz.
-
example.biz
-
example.biz.
-
-
Record Value - Provide any additional comments as free text.

TTL
