What is SPF?
SPF (Sender Policy Framework) is a DNS record that specifies which mail servers are authorized to send email on behalf of your domain. When a receiving server gets your message, it checks the sending server against your SPF record to help verify the mail is legitimate — a core defense against spoofing and a key factor in deliverability.
