Key facts

Acquia is a SaaS platform for Drupal hosting founded by Drupal's creator, Dries Buytaert. Beyond content management, Acquia provides email delivery services on behalf of organisations using its platform, meaning its infrastructure and reputation directly affect email from those domains.

Acquia's email footprint sits predominantly in the long tail of mid-market and smaller sites rather than the largest enterprises; it is geographically diverse across multiple top-level domains, with .com most common. Its frequent co-deployment with Microsoft 365 suggests organisations balancing open-source content management with proprietary email and productivity services, a configuration that requires attention during email troubleshooting and sender reputation assessment.

SPF configuration and mid-market hybrid deployments

When Acquia appears in a domain's SPF record, it signals that the organisation trusts Acquia to send authorised mail. The pattern of Acquia running alongside Microsoft 365 means many mid-market sites maintain dual mail paths—Microsoft for internal collaboration and Acquia-hosted services for customer-facing communications. Deliverability teams troubleshooting mail from these domains must account for both platforms' sending behaviours, authentication requirements, and reputation histories to avoid misclassification of legitimate mail.
