Fix:
- Health Status: we have detected flickering in our SPF record health status alert (health to critical, critical to healthy). This flickering only affects a few organizations, and usually occurs when SPF records are not configured the same way on your different authoritative DNS servers, for each of your domains.
We have released a fix that will prevent Office Protect to alert you more than 4 times if a flickering has been detected. Read our documentation to know how to properly configure a SPF record.
