As a best practice, Mailjet recommends that any business using the email marketing industry standards configure SPF authentication with their domain provider before sending any emails. This allows mail servers to authenticate emails that originate from your domain and enhances the deliverability of your messages.

Within the Mailjet dashboard, you will have to follow the instructions in order to create the SPF record needed for email authentication. Once Mailjet has provided you with information about how to create DNS records, you will need to contact your service provider and have them created.

Creating SPF record for Mailjet

• Login to your DNS management console 

• Navigate to Tools & Settings > DNS Template

• You need to edit the DNS TXT record related to SPF

• An SPF TXT record for Mailjet will have the following syntax: 

yourdomain.com    TXT    v=spf1 include:spf.mailjet.com -all

• Publish this record in your DNS records section for your respective domain. 

Note: If you don’t have an SPF record previously for your domain, simply publish the above-mentioned record to enable SPF for outgoing emails using Mailjet. If you do have an existing SPF record in your DNS, you need to modify it to include Mailjet, as shown below:

Previous SPF record:  v=spf1 include:spf.zoho.com -all

Modified SPF record:  v=spf1 include:spf.zoho.com include:spf.mailjet.com -all

• Save changes 

• Wait for 24-48 hours to allow your DNS to process the changes 

Finally, you can look up your record using our SPF lookup tool, and enable DMARC for your domains with our DMARC analyzer.
