Does DiscountASP.NET support the publishing of SPF (Sender Policy Framework) records?

DiscountASP.NET supports the ability to publish SPF records for domain name(s) using our name servers. SPF records are published by entering the SPF policy as a DNS TXT record.

By default we do not publish SPF records for our users. If you desire to add an SPF record for your domain name(s) you can use the SPF policy wizard. This wizard will ask you questions about how you want your SPF policy to operate.  The wizard will ask you for an IP range.  This information can be found here.

Once you generate the SPF record, you can insert it in the DNS manager in the control panel:
  • Log into the DNS manager
  • In the Text Record Manager, click "New"
  • Leave the domain name text box blank unless you want to setup SPF for a subdomain
  • Input the SPF record you generated using the wizard into the TXT Data field
  • Click Add
For more information on SPF (Sender Policy Framework) please visit the SPF web site.

Note that we are unable to offer any technical support or troubleshooting for SPF records. Should you make updates to the TXT records, you do so at your own risk. An incorrect SPF record can prevent mail from your domain from being delivered.
