Thanks. I figured that the problem really is poor support; they are simply not willing to admit that as a problem despite the evidence provided. I’ll simply have to change email providers since it seems like practically everyone at net4 is incompetent.

Sorry to hear your pain. I know you’re already clued up regarding this topic but i can confirm that DNS records are not Windows/Linux specific. This article below details how to add SPF DNS records on a Windows setup.

Great article — very useful.

Any ideas as to why this would be?
