the two most widely accepted email authentication standards
Sender Policy Framework (SPF) and DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM).
125
Sender Policy Framework (SPF)
SPF is a form of email authentication that makes forging the sender of an email, or email spoofing, more difficult. SPF isn’t aimed at stopping spammers. Rather, it tightens loopholes used by spammers to spoof emails. SPF provides a list of all outbound email sources for a domain as a DNS TXT record.When a receiving mail server gets a message appearing to be sent from a certain domain, it checks the sender’s SPF statement to verify that information.
126
DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM)
DomainKeys is an email authentication system that verifies the DNS of an email sender and the message’s integrity.
127
Domain-Based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC)
A third layer of authentication that’s becoming more widely used is domain-based message authentication, reporting, and conformance, or DMARC. With DMARC, you notify receiving servers that your messages use SPF and DKIM and instruct them on what to do if they fail those authentication checks. Pardot can’t set up a DMARC policy for you, but we can help you ensure your emails are DMARC-compliant
128
Authorization to allow Pardot to send emails on your domain's behalf consists of 3 entries:
SPF, Domainkey Policy and Domain Key

DNS can take up to ___ to fully propagate
