List every TXT record on a name: SPF, domain verification tokens, DKIM keys and more.
FAQ
- Why is my SPF record not found?
- SPF lives in a TXT record on the exact domain used in the envelope sender. Check you published it at the root (or the right subdomain) and that only one begins with v=spf1.
- Is there a length limit?
- Each string in a TXT record is at most 255 characters; longer values are split into several quoted strings that receivers join.
