This article explains how to create a basic SPF record in cPanel. SPF records help improve email deliverability by authorising mail servers to send emails on behalf of your domain.
Steps to Create a Basic SPF Record in cPanel:
- Log in to your cPanel account.
- Navigate to the Email section and click on Email Deliverability.
- Select the domain for which you want to configure the SPF record and click Manage.
- If the Domain Is Using cPanel DNS:
Click INSTALL THE SUGGESTED RECORD to enable the SPF record automatically.
- If the Domain Is Using External DNS:
- cPanel will display the recommended SPF record.
- Copy the suggested SPF record.
- Log in to your external DNS provider.
- Add or update the SPF TXT record for the domain using the copied value.
- Save the changes and allow time for DNS propagation.
This way, you can configure a basic SPF record, whether your domain uses cPanel DNS or an external DNS provider. For further assistance, please contact our support team or visit our Knowledge Base.
