Hosted SPF lets you manage your authorized email senders from the Suped dashboard. Instead of editing TXT records every time you add or remove a sending service, you update it in the UI.
How it works
You replace your existing SPF record with a single include that points to Suped. Suped then serves an SPF record containing all your authorized senders, which you manage from the dashboard.
Setup
- Go to Settings > Domains and click your domain
- Navigate to the SPF tab
- Enable hosted SPF
- Replace your current SPF TXT record with:
The exact include value is shown in your Suped dashboard.v=spf1 include:spf.youralias.mail.suped.com -all - Suped verifies the record and activates hosted SPF
Managing authorized senders
Once hosted SPF is active, you can add and remove sending services directly from the dashboard:
- Add new senders (e.g. a new marketing platform) without DNS access
- Remove senders you no longer use
- See all authorized senders in one place
Changes take effect immediately since your DNS record is just a pointer to Suped.
Automatic DNS lookup compliance
The SPF specification limits records to 10 DNS lookups. Hosted SPF automatically manages this for you, ensuring your record stays within the limit. If you need more than 10 senders, Suped can apply SPF flattening to keep the lookup count down.
