MX and SPF Records
• A mail exchanger record (MX record) is a type of resource record in
the Domain Name System that specifies a mail server responsible for
accepting email messages on behalf of a recipient's domain, and a
preference value used to prioritize mail delivery if multiple mail
servers are available.

• An SPF record is a type of Domain Name Service (DNS) record that


identifies which mail servers are permitted to send email on behalf of
your domain. The purpose of an SPF record is to prevent spammers
from sending messages with forged From addresses at your domain.
