SPF Record Configuration for Sending Emails via Utixo
To ensure secure and reliable email delivery, it's essential to properly configure the SPF (Sender Policy Framework) TXT record in your domain’s DNS.
The SPF record defines which servers are authorized to send emails on behalf of your domain, helping to prevent spoofing, phishing, and spam.
How SPF Works
When an email is received, the recipient’s mail server checks whether the sending IP is included in the domain's SPF record. If not, the email may be marked as spam or rejected.
If your domain already has an SPF record
If your domain has an existing SPF record, simply add the following to the existing string:
include:spf.utixo.net
If your domain has no SPF record
If you don't yet have an SPF record, you can add the following TXT record to your DNS:
"v=spf1 +a +mx include:spf.utixo.net ~all"
This authorizes Utixo's servers to send emails on behalf of your domain.
Verifying the Configuration
After setting or updating the SPF record, allow up to 1 hour for DNS propagation, then verify using an SPF checking tool.

The result should clearly show "include:spf.utixo.net" and no configuration errors.
