Too many included lookups (13)

DMARC Questions about SPF

Hi all,

I’m getting “Too many included lookups (13)” error when I do a kippma.org spf lookup “mxtoolbox” How can this this be resolved.

Thanks
Larry

Hi Larry,

Thanks for reaching out, your SPF record can only include a maximum of 10 include lookup statements. If you remove a few this should fix your issue. Also here is a link for some more resources, https://www.globalcyberalliance.org/wp-content/uploads/SPF-Setup-Guide.pdf

Hi Joshua,

thank you for the reply, it seems we need all these spf records for our third party vendors. BlackBaud’s Raiser’s Edge in particular. Can you give example of how to enter IP address rather than include statement or any other way to address this? Thanks!
