Do you check SPF (Sender Policy Framework) records?

Saturday, December 1, 2007 - 13:21 Tags: •  •  • 

Yes, we check SPF (Sender Policy Framework) DNS records before a message is accepted.

Messages that pass the SPF check, or messages that “soft fail” the SPF check (i.e. no SPF DNS record for the domain exists) will be delivered.

Messages that “hard fail” the SPF check (i.e. are sent from e-mail servers not specified in their SPF record) will be rejected before they can enter Rhombic Networks’ mail processing queue, reducing the amount of spam our users get.

What domains can Rhombic Networks host?

Yes, we can host any common TLD or international domain (.uk, .in, .nu, etc).

We can host other esoteric TLDs as well, such as US-locality domain names, and those from OpenNIC, the democratic name system.

What authoritative nameservers should I use for my domain?

If you’ve purchased your domain yourself through a registrar (i.e. Register.com, GoDaddy), but host your DNS through Rhombic Networks, please use the nameservers:

a.ns.rhombic.net
b.ns.rhombic.net
c.ns.rhombic.net
d.ns.rhombic.net
e.ns.rhombic.net
