How to Setup SPF for Zoho Mail?

You must include _zoho.com_ in your SPF record to guarantee that Zoho is permitted to send emails on your behalf. SPF is a DNS-based filtering system that mail gateways use to identify legitimate mail servers.

  • Go to the domain for which you want to modify/add your SPF record

  • If you already have an SPF record for that domain: 

 

If you are using Zoho Campaign, add the following include mechanism to your pre-existing SPF record: 

include:zcsend.net


In case you are using Zoho Mail, add the following include mechanism to your pre-existing SPF record: 

include:spf.zoho.eu or, include:zoho.in


Kindly consult with Zoho support in order to have better clarity on which include statement you should add for Zoho. Your modified SPF record will look something like this: 


v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:zoho.in -all 



Note: Make sure your domain has only one SPF record and that IP and include methods for third-party email services and applications are added to the same SPF record. SPF will be invalidated if you publish duplicate SPF records in your DNS.


  • If you don’t have an SPF record for your domain, simply add a TXT record with the value: 


v=spf1 include:zoho.in -all


Finally, lookup and validate your SPF record to ensure your SPF record is error-free and valid.
