An SPF record can save your domain from spam and phishing by allowing you to keep a record of your authorized sources. Episerver highly recommends their customers set up SPF for their respective domains. Here’s how you do it:
Creating SPF/DKIM record for Episerver
To use a preferred domain, several DNS records must be created. The following configuration steps use the domain example.com.
1. Create a new A-RR entry to lead tracking links to the Optimizely tracking server
- Domain: t.example.com
- Value: 193.169.180.193
2. Create a new MX-RR entry to lead technical responses (e.g. bounce messages) to the Optimizely email server.
- Domain: t.example.com
- Priority: 0
- Value: mail.srv2.de.
3. Create a new TXT-RR entry to authorize all IP addresses used by the Optimizely email servers for your domain.
- Domain: t.example.com
- Value: v=spf1 include:spf.srv2.de -all
