I support a domain for a sports club (fingaltri.ie) and use Google Apps for email. This has been working fine until recently when all mail to either individual accounts or groups started getting bounced. Even sending mail within our Google account gets bounced (see bounce response below).
all of the MX records look correct and I have added an SPF entry:
v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com ~all
and the domain isn't blacklisted (according to MXtools.com).
Two other DNS related things that may be significant:
- My ISP has included it's own MX record although the first google one seems to take priority
- My ISP also includes its own SPF record: v=spf1 a mx
I am unable to delete either of these records using my control panel. Could either of these be the cause of the problem?
Any help appreciated.
