SPF record has irregular spacing
NOTEWhat it means
The record contains repeated or leading spaces. Most parsers tolerate it; some split terms on it and read the record differently from the way you wrote it.
How to fix it
Separate every term with a single space and remove leading or trailing whitespace.
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 12. Every finding on this site cites the specification behind it so you can check the work rather than take our word for it.
