Tech tip of the month
Why and How to create a SPF record
As we move into the future, we all need to be looking at ways to better protect our domains from spammers. A great way to do this is to create a SPF record. SPF records are TXT dns records in a particular zone for a particular domain that dictate what servers are authorized to send out mail for the domain. They are becoming more and more mandatory as spam becomes a larger problem. They basically prevent spammers from spoofing your domain, while allowing spam filters to give your legitimate email more weight.
To learn more about how to add this go to: http://kb.sagonet.com/Spf or contact us at
