Post subject:  How long before TXT record update in DNS Manager?

I just added a TXT record:

v=spf1 mx ~all

and it hasn't updated. Looking at the zone file it doesn't include the TXT record. Granted it's only been about 5 minutes but how long does it talk for DNS Manager to update with new records. When I changed an A and MX record the other day it happend almost immediately. Not so with TXT. Is this normal?

Also, I have never setup SPF records before. Does the above look right?

Takes 15 minutes IIRC.

Specifically, the zone file is generated at (approximately) 0, 15, 30, and 45 minutes past each hour.

No one addressed it so I'll respond to the other question. Yes your SPF record looks good. It reads as spf1 spec. Mail exchange IP is authorized to send on behalf of the server and receiving servers should soft-fail if any other IP sends mail on behalf of the domain.

It depends on the propagation, usually will take 1 to 2 hours
