I have a question about setting up the SPF string.
If I use this string:
v=spf1 a mx a:bcw5, a:bcw6 -all
as a text record in our domain (bcwebhost.net), then the SPF test checks the sending IP and tries to match it against either bcw5.bcwebhost.net or bcw6.bcwebhost.net. The -all option says that if the sending IP doesn't match one of those two, the test fails. Now when I send out mail, it goes out through an IP (66.224.41.4 -- our firewall) that doesn't belong to that domain. So how do I get the SPF test to pass for email coming from this IP address?
You just need to add "ip4:66.224.41.4" to the SPF record, and you should be all set.
