SPF Record Examples for Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, SendGrid, Mailgun, Zoho, and Amazon SES

Copy practical SPF examples and learn how to combine common email providers into one safe TXT record.

Common SPF includes

Google Workspace commonly uses include:_spf.google.com, Microsoft 365 commonly uses include:spf.protection.outlook.com, and Amazon SES commonly uses include:amazonses.com.

Zoho Mail commonly uses include:zohomail.com, SendGrid commonly uses include:sendgrid.net, and Mailgun commonly uses include:mailgun.org. Always merge services into one SPF record instead of publishing duplicates.

Example combined records

Google Workspace plus Microsoft 365: v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:spf.protection.outlook.com ~all

Amazon SES plus Mailgun: v=spf1 include:amazonses.com include:mailgun.org ~all. Keep an eye on SPF's 10 DNS lookup limit when adding many providers.

FAQ

Can I publish one SPF record per provider?

No. SPF expects one TXT record that starts with v=spf1. Put every provider in that single record.

Are these examples enough for DKIM and DMARC?

No. SPF authorizes senders, but DKIM and DMARC still need their own setup for stronger domain protection.
