SPF (Sender Policy Framework) is an email authentication protocol that helps prevent unauthorized senders from sending emails on behalf of your domain. By specifying which mail servers are allowed to send email for your domain, SPF helps reduce spam and phishing and improves email deliverability.
This guide outlines how to configure SPF for AWeber, a trusted email marketing platform used to send newsletters, campaigns, and automated emails.
Note: If you’re already using Sendmarc for SPF management, simply copy ‘include:send.aweber.com’ and follow the steps here.
To authorize AWeber to send emails on your domain’s behalf:
Example of an updated SPF record:
Host | Type | Value |
---|---|---|
@ or blank | TXT | v=spf1 include:another.net include:send.aweber.com ~all
|
Example of a new SPF record:
Host | Type | Value |
---|---|---|
@ or blank | TXT | v=spf1 include:send.aweber.com ~all |
Allow up to 48 hours for DNS propagation, depending on your DNS host.
