I previously only had a SPF record. The validator at Kitterman.com said that the SPF DNS record was deprecated and to use a TXT record. I did that, and now i'm getting the following error from that tool: Results - PermError SPF Permanent Error: Too many DNS lookups. The full log is at the bottom of this note. I had this error a long time ago, and at that time had DNS hosted by DNSimple. They looked into it and told me that there were too many SPF records. Not sure how I would get around that problem though...
Hi all, trying to get all of your required SPF records to play nice. Recently, our Mailchimp newsletters have been showing "via" in at least Gmail. Previously, i've had issues with Intercom as well. I'm hoping you can work it out amongst yourselves and tell me whats best...
I think it may be related to the ~all at the end. Some of you want ~all (Intercom, Google Apps), some want ?all (Mailchimp, Zendesk), some want -all (Intercom)
I used a handy generator to create a new record, and it gave me this: "v=spf1 mx include:_spf.google.com include:servers.mcsv.net include:_spf.zdsys.com include:spf.mail.intercom.io ?all" using this configuration
- Google Apps (_spf.google.com)
- Mailchimp (servers.mcsv.net)
- Zendesk (_spf.zdsys.com)
- Intercom.io (spf.mail.intercom.io)
SPF record lookup and validation for: mapjam.com
SPF records are published in DNS as TXT records.
The TXT records found for your domain are:
v=spf1 a include:_spf.google.com include:servers.mcsv.net include:_spf.zdsys.com include:spf.mail.intercom.io ~all
DNS Type SPF SPF records found for the domain are:
v=spf1 a include:_spf.google.com include:servers.mcsv.net include:_spf.zdsys.com include:spf.mail.intercom.io ~all
DNS Type SPF use has been removed in the standards track version of SPF, RFC 7208. These records should be removed.
Checking to see if there is a valid SPF record.
