Adding GMail servers to SPF records

How do you add GMail's mail sending server to your SPF records? Anyone done that?

You add following in your TXT DNS record for SPF:

Code:

include:aspmx.googlemail.com

So the final record might look like this:

Code:

domain.com IN TXT "v=spf1 include:spf.krot.org include:aspmx.googlemail.com include:spf.messagingengine.com ?all"

You might as well add a record of type SPF, in addition to TXT.

Delete the STANDARD_SPF entry, and create a TXT entry with:

v=spf1 include:aspmx.googlemail.com include:spf.messagingengine.com ~all
