: Issue with Godaddy DNS manager I'm using domains.live.com to setup an email to a domain registered on Godaddy. The domains.live.com configuration page says: Godaddy's DNS manager isn't accepting

You almost had it; the text of the record should only be what follows "Value:"

v=spf1 include:hotmail.com ~all


See the syntax documentation on the OpenSPF website.

In the new DNS manager interface, just add a TXT record like so:



In the old DNS Manager, when you add a TXT record you will see the following:

Note: Using TXT records for SPF information is being replaced by the SPF record, itself.

In this case, you can use GoDaddy's SPF generator, filling in the details as options on a tabbed interface.

If you simply "Quick Add" a TXT record, you can do it with basically just the value from above.
