Email sending configuration

WEHOOP allows you to send emails with an address from your domain. To do this, you must first configure an SPF record in your DNS.

What is an SPF Record?

An SPF record is a Sender Policy Framework record and is used to indicate to mail exchanges which hosts are authorized to send mail for a domain. It is defined in RFC 4408 and clarified by RFC 7208.

SPF record format

SPF records are typically defined using the TXT record type. There is also an SPF record type, however it is deprecated and thus you should always have at least the TXT record definition present, even if you use the SPF type.

SPF records are defined as a single text string. You will find below the configuration to allow WEHOOP to send e-mails:


Host : @
TXT Value : v=spf1 +a +a:spf.wehoop.com +mx -all
TTL : 1/2 Hour
