An SPF (Sender Policy Framework) record is a DNS record that specifies which mail servers are authorized to send email on behalf of your domain. Updating it is crucial to prevent email spoofing, improve email deliverability, and reduce the chances of your emails being marked as spam. Outdated SPF records can lead to emails being rejected or flagged as suspicious.
