Need help with creating SPF record
|
|
Hello, When I try to use the SPF setup wizard to create our SPF record, it keeps using our website's public IP address 216.138.203.132 and asking if that server sends mail from caea.com. I can't get it to use our email server's public IP address of 216.138.203.130. We only have two MX records (mailto.caea.com and mail.caea.com), but the wizard thinks we have three MX records. The email-server.caea.com is used by EHLO and is not an MX record. I don't know how to correct the wizard. Here is the DNS lookup information for caea.com: DNS Lookup for caea.com Generated by www.DNSTools.ca on Tue Apr 29 12:29:46 2008. . ; <<>> DiG 9.2.4 <<>> caea.com ANY ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 26729 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 5, AUTHORITY: 2, ADDITIONAL: 4 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;caea.com.
