In their crackdown on server spoofing, Gmail has been rejecting everything from my e-mail server for the past two months, claiming it needs SPF *or* DKIM verification from DNS records. I added an SPF text record per their instructions when it all started, to no avail:
v=spf1 ip4:96.35.163.109 include:everywherewest.com ~all
It seems simple enough, but it still doesn't work. Building a DKIM record impresses me as a royal pain in the butt, so I'd like some help determining where I'm going wrong with the SPF record.
One possible clue is that the rejection notice references an IP6 address as the sender, not the IP4 address. The IP6 address from my ISP is dynamic. Is this the bug?
TIA!
