I'm having problems with Google rejecting mail because of SPF problems. I thought I had this fixed, but evidently not...
The mail is being sent from a Drupal site running mimemail. A message that shows the problem looks like:

[Apologies for the anonomyzing.]
The SPF records for the domain, obtained from http://www.whatsmyip.us/txt, look like:
v=spf1 ip4:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ~all , ttl : 14144
v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com ~all , ttl : 14144
v=spf1 a -all , ttl : 14144
v=spf1 ip4:xxx.xxx.xxx.yyy ~all , ttl : 14144
similarly anonymized.
I can't figure out what's wrong -- the appropriate SPF records seem to be in place. The only issue I can see is that I have indeed set up (or tried to set up) two servers as legal senders for the domain; this is meant to cover both a production and a development server (let's call them sender.com and dev.sender.com). Is this an issue?
Any thoughts about what's wrong? Again, I thought this was once working correctly, but it's definitely not now. Thanks!
