A record SPF abbreviation of Sender Policy Framework is a type of Domain Name Service (DNS) record that identifies the mail servers authorized to send email on behalf of your domain.
The purpose of the SPF record is to prevent spammers from sending messages with forged sender addresses internal to your domain, or pretending to be your sender even if you are not a user of your organization who has access to the use of your email address. Recipients can check the SPF record to determine if a message that appears to come from your domain comes from an authorized mail server and following this check decide to discard it as SPAM or accept it and deliver it to the recipient's email address.
