How to add a new or edit an existing SPF record in domain DNS settings
SPF (Sender Policy Framework) is an email authentication method that allows you to verify that EmailMassivo has the right to send messages on behalf of your domain.
To configure SPF, you need to follow these steps:
- Determine where your domain is located. Depending on the hosting provider or DNS management service, a different configuration method is required.
- Check for an existing SPF record. If your domain settings already contain an SPF record, you need to modify it.
- Merge the existing record with the EmailMassivo SPF record. To do this, add "include:" before each of the two fragments. For example, if your current record looks like this:
v=spf1 include:domain.com ~all
It can be merged as follows:
v=spf1 include:mailmsv.com include:domain.com ~all
- Save and publish changes. Depending on your DNS management system, you may need to save and publish changes. Wait for them to update. This may take some time.
- Verify the settings are correct. After making changes, make sure the SPF record is set correctly. This can be done by performing a check through the EmailMassivo control panel. If the checkmark has turned green, the record is set correctly.
Important!
If the SPF record text of your domain differs from the instructions, contact technical support to create the correct record.
