Hi David, That's ironic: because of a hint from my provider to set up SPF to be on the safe side (because of Google!), I dealt with the topic.
And now, of all people, should Google not be configured properly? It would be possible. The warning isn't really a problem, I can receive and send emails from Google. But I have to evaluateare this warnings. And yes, by other domains all works fine.
