SPF Record: Difference between revisions

Typically, our customers would use <code>smtp.aa.net.uk</code> to send email - however thought must be given to other servers that may also send email from your domain - eg you may have a 3rd party web server or some other service that sends email on our behalf - these would want to be included too.

 

To cover the IP addresses of the A&A email servers, you can include <code>_spf_include.aa.net.uk</code>, eg:

v=spf1 mx include:_spf_include.aa.net.uk ~all

 

This says to accept email from the mx records (<code>mx</code>) and A&A's published list of IP addresses (<code>include:_spf_include.aa.net.uk</code>) , everything else should be marked as possible junk (<code>~all</code>). This should be added as a domain level TXT record (Typically "@" through a control panel).
