§ 01 Tool 02 · no signup · public DNS

Check your SPF record.

SPF tells receivers which servers may send on behalf of your domain. I check the record, syntax, the "all" ending and the DNS lookup count most stores trip over.

§ 03 FAQ

Before you ask.

What is the 10 DNS lookup limit?

Every include, a, mx, exists and redirect in an SPF record is a DNS query, including those nested inside other services' includes. Above 10 the receiver stops evaluating and treats SPF as an error. Stores with hosting, Google Workspace, an SMTP plugin and a newsletter at once exceed it most often.

What is the difference between ~all and -all?

"-all" tells receivers to reject mail from outside the list, "~all" marks it as suspicious. With working DMARC "~all" is enough, and "-all" can hurt when you forget to add a new service.

I have two SPF records, is that a problem?

Yes, a serious one: receivers treat two records as no SPF. Every mechanism must sit in a single TXT record.
