SPF record for Cloudflare

How to add a SPF record when DNS or mail is at Cloudflare. Real steps, then a live lookup.

If the domain is proxied (orange cloud), that does not affect TXT records. MX and TXT stay DNS-only.

  1. DNS > Records > Add record > TXT.
  2. Name @, content v=spf1 … ~all. Proxy status does not apply to TXT.
  3. One SPF record only. Merge includes.

Official docs: Cloudflare. Other records for this provider: SPF · DKIM · DMARC
