SPF Record Check for gg.gg

The SPF record for gg.gg defines exactly which IP addresses and mail services are permitted to send email using @gg.gg addresses. When a receiving mail server gets an email claiming to be from gg.gg, it checks this SPF record to verify that the sending server is authorized.

If gg.gg's SPF record is configured correctly, it protects against email spoofing, preventing unauthorized parties from sending emails that appear to come from gg.gg. A missing or misconfigured SPF record can lead to delivery problems and makes the domain vulnerable to phishing attacks.

This SPF record checker breaks down each component of gg.gg's SPF record, showing which IP ranges and services are included and whether the policy ends with a hard fail (-all), soft fail (~all), or neutral (?all) for unauthorized senders.

What Is SPF?

SPF (Sender Policy Framework), defined in RFC 7208, works by publishing a DNS TXT record that lists the IP addresses and domains allowed to send email for gg.gg. Receiving mail servers check this record to verify that incoming email actually comes from an authorized source.

Without SPF, anyone on the internet can forge the "From" address in an email to impersonate gg.gg. SPF helps prevent this by giving receiving servers a way to verify that the sending server's IP address is authorized by gg.gg's domain administrators.

SPF Syntax Explained

An SPF record starts with "v=spf1" and contains one or more mechanisms: "ip4:" and "ip6:" specify allowed IP ranges, "include:" references another domain's SPF record, "a" allows the domain's own A record IPs, "mx" allows IPs from MX records, and "all" is the catch-all at the end.

Qualifiers modify how each mechanism is evaluated: "+" means pass (default if omitted), "-" means hard fail, "~" means soft fail, and "?" means neutral. A record ending in "-all" strictly rejects unauthorized senders, while "~all" marks them as suspicious but doesn't outright reject them. Best practice for gg.gg is to use "-all" once all legitimate sending sources are accounted for.

SPF Best Practices

Keep the SPF record under the 10 DNS lookup limit. Each "include:", "a", "mx", and "redirect" mechanism counts toward this limit. Exceeding it causes a "permerror" that can result in all email from gg.gg failing SPF checks.

Use "-all" instead of "~all" once you're confident all legitimate senders for gg.gg are included. Regularly audit the "include:" entries to remove services gg.gg no longer uses. If the record is approaching the 10-lookup limit, consider "flattening" includes into explicit IP ranges.

Monitor SPF alignment with DMARC reports. DMARC aggregate reports will show you if legitimate email from gg.gg is failing SPF checks, which helps identify missing authorized senders.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does gg.gg have SPF?. The SPF analysis for gg.gg shows whether the domain has a published SPF record and details its contents. If no SPF record is found, gg.gg has not configured email sender authorization.

What is gg.gg's SPF policy?. The SPF policy is determined by the final mechanism in the record. "-all" means hard fail (reject unauthorized senders), "~all" means soft fail (flag but don't reject), and "?all" means neutral (no policy).

Is gg.gg protected from email spoofing?, SPF alone provides partial protection. Full email spoofing protection for gg.gg requires SPF combined with DKIM and a DMARC policy set to "quarantine" or "reject". Check gg.gg's DMARC page for the full picture.

Why is email from gg.gg going to spam?. If SPF checks are failing, email from gg.gg may be flagged as suspicious. Verify that all sending servers and services are included in the SPF record.
