All of a sudden many of my companies emails are being blocked by Hotmail and many others due to SPF. I've added v=spf1 ip4:66.49.60.115 a mx:hpdist.com ~all to my DNS settings as a TXT record. But this hasn't helped. Is there something server side I need to adjust?

    Do you also have reverse DNS setup as well?

    You need to know where your mail is actually coming from. Does the header information returned in the bounce messages show this? Jun 3, 2014 at 17:03
  • My apologies everyone, I found we had been blacklisted due to a virus.

Test to make sure your SPF record is set up correctly by sending an email to:

[email protected]

The address above will send email authentication results to [email protected].

When troubleshooting SPF records, I use http://www.kitterman.com/spf/validate.html. This lets me test DNS records before I push them to the server, that way I know they'll work before I deploy them.
