Reading the answer
- SPF lives in a TXT record starting v=spf1 on the domain itself. There should be exactly one.
- DMARC lives at _dmarc.yourdomain, and DKIM keys at selector._domainkey.yourdomain, so look those names up directly.
- Strings like google-site-verification=... prove you own the domain to a service. They're safe to leave in place.
- Long records are split into several quoted strings of up to 255 characters; they're joined here.
Every field and accepted value: the TXT record explained. Other lookups: MX lookup, NS lookup, CNAME lookup, A record lookup.

OpenFrequently asked questions
How do I check a domain's SPF record?
Look up the TXT records on the domain and find the one starting v=spf1. There should be only one.
How do I check DMARC?
Look up TXT records on _dmarc.example.com, replacing example.com with your domain. The record starts v=DMARC1.
Can a domain have more than one TXT record?
Yes, as many as it needs. The exceptions are SPF and DMARC: one of each, or receivers treat them as broken.
Why is my new TXT record not showing?
It can take a few minutes to reach your DNS host's servers, and resolvers may have cached a 'no such record' answer for a while before that.
