I decided to put in an SPF record, but DNSREport still shows it as
not being there.

stat.com

has a SPF record of:

"v=spf1 -all"


Isn't this just a TXT record, or did I miss something?

The problem is that your SPF record has the quotes in it, but it should not.

If you go to http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/lookup.ch?name=stat.com&type=TXT you'll see the problem. DNS tools will often show quotes around the TXT records to show how they are formatted (unfortunately, the original DNS specs for TXT records allowed a TXT record to have multiple strings, which required the quotes), and examples will often need to use quotes (if I say that your SPF record should be v=spf1 -all you will likely get confused, whereas it is more clear by saying it should be "v=spf1 -all").

If you remove the quotes, then the SPF record will become visible.
