SPF-records
SPF-records är ett slags digitalt certifikat du sätter upp som ger Ungapped tillåtelse att skicka mail i ert namn.
För att kunna skicka mail med din egen domän som avsändaradress (istället för tex foretaget@ungpd.com) krävs att ni har satt upp SPF-records.
Setting up SPF-records for the sender address
To improve deliverability, you need to tell the world that our IP-addresses used for sending e-mail in your name are authorized to do that.
SPF (Sender Policy Framework) is a method used to protect a domain from being used by unauthorized senders (e.g. spammers).
When we send an email with a from-address ending in your domain your SPF-records need to show that our servers are authorized to do that. This allows spam-filters to rely on that the email has really been sent from you. This increases the chance of your email not ending up in the recipient’s junk-mail.
If your company already has an SPF-record for your domain (i.e. the domain you’re using as reply-to in your emails) you simply add include:_spf.ungapped.com before the parameter ~all in your existing SPF-record.
If your company doesn’t have an SPF-record then add a TXT-record in your DNS with the value: v=spf1 include:_spf.ungapped.com ~all
Do not add more than one SPF-record for your domain. If your already have one like:
“v=spf1 a mx include:_spf.google.com include:spf.protection.outlook.com ~all”
all you need to do is add the Ungapped domain * just before ~all i.e.:
“v=spf1 a mx include:_spf.google.com include:spf.protection.outlook.cominclude:_spf.ungapped.com ~all”
NOTE: In case you reach the limit of SPF-records included, maybe you need to include the unique IP address you get assigned by Ungapped.
