How to configure domain ip for sending mail cpanel server

To configure a domain's IP address for sending mail on a cPanel server, you'll need to follow these steps:

Step 1: Log in to cPanel

Access your cPanel account by visiting your domain's URL followed by /cpanel (e.g., example.com/cpanel).

Step 2: Go to the Mail section

In the cPanel dashboard, click on the "Mail" section and then select "Email Accounts".

Step 3: Select the email account

Choose the email account you want to configure from the list of available accounts.

Step 4: Click on "Edit Settings"

Click on the "Edit Settings" button next to the email account you selected.

Step 5: Scroll down to the "Sender Policy Framework (SPF)" section

In the "Edit Settings" page, scroll down to the "Sender Policy Framework (SPF)" section.

Step 6: Add the IP address

In the "SPF" section, click on the "Add IP Address" button.

Step 7: Enter the IP address

Enter the IP address you want to use for sending mail in the "IP Address" field. You can enter a single IP address or a range of IP addresses (e.g., 192.0.2.1 or 192.0.2.1-192.0.2.10).

Step 8: Click "Add"

Click the "Add" button to save the IP address.

Step 9: Verify the SPF record

To verify that the SPF record has been updated, you can check the DNS records for your domain using a tool like dig or nslookup. The SPF record should include the IP address you added.

Step 10: Update your email client

Finally, update your email client (e.g., Outlook, Thunderbird) to use the new IP address for sending mail.

That's it! Your domain's IP address should now be configured for sending mail on your cPanel server.
