Free SPF Record Lookup

Enter any domain to retrieve its live SPF record from DNS. See the full record, count DNS lookups, expand every nested include, and flag RFC 7208 violations.

We'll retrieve and analyze the live SPF record from DNS for your domain.

What Is an SPF Record Lookup?

An SPF record lookup queries DNS for the Sender Policy Framework TXT record published at a domain's apex. The record declares which IP addresses, servers, and third-party services are authorized to send email on behalf of that domain. Receiving mail servers perform this lookup during every inbound SMTP transaction to verify the sender's identity.

This tool goes beyond a simple DNS query — it recursively expands every include, redirect, and nested mechanism, counts the total DNS lookups against the RFC 7208 limit of 10, and flags any syntax errors, void lookups, or deprecated mechanisms.
