GoDaddy Email email authentication

GoDaddy’s bundled email, including its resold Microsoft 365 plans.

SPF record

Add GoDaddy Email to your domain's SPF record with this include:

include:secureserver.net

A complete record for a domain sending only through GoDaddy Email:

v=spf1 include:secureserver.net ~all

What it costs you

3 of your 10 DNS lookups. The include: itself costs one, and GoDaddy Email's record chains to 2 more. Behind it are 44 IP ranges.

Live record

This is what secureserver.net published when this page was generated:

v=spf1 include:spf-0.secureserver.net -all

DKIM

Enable DKIM inside GoDaddy Email and publish the selector record it generates. DKIM matters more than SPF for deliverability, because a DKIM signature survives forwarding while SPF does not — see how selectors work.

DMARC

Neither SPF nor DKIM protects the address your recipients actually see until DMARC ties them to it. Once GoDaddy Email is authenticating, publish a DMARC record — start at p=none with a reporting address and tighten from there.

Check it worked

DNS changes take minutes to hours to propagate. Once published, run the domain through the checker — it resolves the full include chain and reports the real lookup count.
