Hi,
Sorry to bother everyone on Thanksgiving eve! BTW Happy Thanksgiving!!
I need to configure an SPF record on ZoneEdit and I cannot find enough information to configure it.
I assume the record type is TXT. And I know what the TTL is. Not sure what to put in the Sub-Domain field and the Text field.
Subdomain would be "@" or all. You are entering this TXT record at the domain level (just like you do for your MX records); however I am unsure of the syntax of that portal - such questions might be best addressed to
support@zonedit.com?
Yes, the record type is TXT, 3600 is acceptable for a TTL (or set as default of other records).
If you are entering a SPF (sender policy framework) record to make your mail more deliverable, it would be entered into the Text Field:
"v=spf1 ptr:gmail.com -all"
Any server whose hostname ends in gmail.com is designated.
For a full list of all allowable characters:
http://www.openspf.org/SPF_Record_Syntax
Note, I believe the "-all" is deprecated in favor of ~all, but most DNS allow either.
Here's the test tools for SPF:
http://www.openspf.org/Tools
Also I have multiple sub-domains that point to the same email server, such as SMTP, MAIL, etc.
I have two mx records.
That is not going to matter here, I don't think; provided you actually are entering a SPF entry, which will work for your entire domain on any mail message.
Any help is much appreciated.
If this is not successful, I would suggest you ask here (although they are not going to be as qualified as we are):
