Identifying and Reviewing Existing SPF Records

Identifying and Reviewing Existing SPF Records

SPF records live within a domain's DNS (Domain Name System) configuration. Here's how to find and review them:

  1. Accessing DNS Management:

  • Domain Registrar: Many domain registrars offer a DNS management interface within their control panel. Log in to your account and look for a section labeled "DNS," "Domain Management," or similar.

  • Third-Party DNS Provider: If you use a separate service for DNS management, locate their control panel and navigate to the DNS section for your domain.

  1. Finding TXT Records:

  • Within the DNS management interface, locate the records for your domain.

  • Focus on records of the type "TXT" (Text). SPF records are typically stored as TXT records.

  1. Identifying the SPF Record:

  • Look for a TXT record containing text like "v=spf1" or similar. This indicates an SPF record.

  • There might be multiple TXT records, so examine each one carefully.

  1. Reviewing the SPF Record Content:

  • The SPF record content defines authorized email senders for your domain.

  • It might include elements like:

    • include: statements specifying other domains allowed to send emails.

    • mx: statements authorizing email sending from your domain's MX (Mail Exchange) servers.

    • ip4: statements listing specific IP addresses authorized to send emails.

    • a: statements permitting emails from any host name associated with your domain's IP address.
