SPF (Sender Policy Framework) is an email authentication method that uses DNS records to specify which servers are authorized to send emails on behalf of your domain. Its main purpose is to detect email spoofing and prevent unauthorized senders from impersonating your domain.
Without SPF, your emails are more likely to be marked as spam, rejected, or not delivered at all—directly impacting your email deliverability and communication reliability.
Why Is SPF Important?
Implementing SPF is critical to:
Ensure the authenticity of your emails.
Protect your domain from spoofing and phishing attacks.
Improve overall email deliverability.
Align with industry standards for email security, required by providers like Gmail and Yahoo.
We highly recommend adding an SPF record to your domain (e.g., mydomain.com) if you send emails through Learnybox.
