How to Deploy Sender Policy Framework (SPF) for CleanSMTP Users

Simple Sender Address Forgery Prevention

To help reduce unwanted spam we recommend the implementation of Sender Policy Framework for all CleanSMTP customers.

Sender Policy Framework (SPF) is a mechanism to let email servers know which servers are allowed to send email for your domain name(s) and therefore prevent email address forgery. By implementing SPF the Internet community has started to see a massive reduction in spoofed emails and unexpected bounced email messages.

SPF is also very simple and easy to deploy for all CleanSMTP users, and only requires a few extra records added to your DNS zones. These new records by default should include any IP addresses (or host names) that are approved to send email for your domain name(s). This can include your own email servers, CleanSMTP servers, web servers, bulk email services and remote workers that send email bypassing your primary email servers.
