✅ In this episode, Charly walks through:

🛠️ The exact SPF value to add for Google Workspace

📌 The importance of updating an EXISTING SPF record in your DNS settings

⚠️ What to avoid—like having multiple SPF records

This step is often overlooked but makes a huge difference when it comes to email security and consistency. If you want to ensure your email is trusted, this episode is for you.

The record to ADD if you don't already have SPF entry in your DNS is:
v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com ~all

include:_spf.google.com
