SPF has mechanisms after "all"

URGENT

SPF · Urgent · costs 25 points · RFC 7208 section 5.1

What it means

Everything after all is never evaluated, including the offending value. Senders you believe are authorised are silently not.

How to fix it

Move all to the very end of the record, after every ip4:, ip6: and include: mechanism.

Check your own domain

This page describes the condition. To find out whether your domain has it, run the SPF test or the full checkup, which examines every record at once.

Understand it properly

This page covers one condition. For the whole picture, What is SPF, and the ten-lookup limit, or start at the Health Library.

Where this comes from

We judge this against RFC 7208 section 5.1. Every finding on this site cites the specification behind it so you can check the work rather than take our word for it.

Other SPF conditions

SPF_ALL_NOT_LAST

Every fix on this site is yours to implement. If you would rather someone did it, I take this work directly.
