Use the SPF lookup to find the v=spf1 TXT record published for a domain. The result contains exists and, when a record is found, a spfRecord array with the matching TXT values.
Enter a domain at spotzee.com/tools/spf-lookup.

​
Check a domain

1

Enter the domain

Use the domain whose SPF record you want to inspect.
2

Read the returned records

If exists is true, inspect every value in spfRecord. If it is false, the lookup found no matching record. A DNS query failure can also return exists: false with an error message; check that message before changing DNS.
3

Evaluate the record separately

Review mechanisms such as include:, a, mx, and redirect: against your authorised senders. The lookup returns raw records; it does not parse mechanisms, count DNS lookups, or run SPF against a message.
Publishing more than one SPF record can make SPF evaluation fail. Check the returned array before adding another record. To inspect broader domain authentication signals, see the email health check. The same lookup is available through POST /generic/email/spf-lookup in the Spotzee Extended API. API calls use your credit balance; see pricing for the current rate.
