SPF (Sender Policy Framework) is an email validation protocol that prevents spammers from sending emails on behalf of your domain. It defines which mail servers are authorized to send email for your domain.
This guide covers SPF setup for Flywheel, a managed WordPress hosting provider known for its streamlined tools and secure platform.
Note: If you’re already using Sendmarc for SPF management, simply copy ‘include:sendgrid.net’ and follow the steps here.
To authorize Flywheel 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:sendgrid.net ~all |
Example of a new SPF record:
Host | Type | Value |
---|---|---|
@ or blank | TXT | v=spf1 include:sendgrid.net ~all |
Allow up to 48 hours for DNS propagation, depending on your DNS host.
