SPF Record
Sender Policy Framework (SPF) is an open standard for preventing sender address forgery.  An SPF record is an optional .txt file in the DNS record for your domain name which specifies what email servers are allowed to send email using your domain name.  You must have an SPF record configured if you want to send emails from PCR Educator and have them appear as if they come from your school.  Example: When sending out emails from Admin and the CMS Teacher Portal, you can have the emails go out as rsmith@bistmarschool.edu instead of rsmith@pcreducator.com.  Note:  You must have an SPF record setup in order to send emails through PCR Educator.
