I'm confused (not a new condition). I don't see how anyone can block mail because of an IP not allowed in an SPF record if that domain does not have an SPF record.

Or where? In our DNS set-up? Well, I called our DNS site/record holder, aplus.net, and after talking with several of their people, they said it wasn't their call, rather it was our T-1 provider. We use dual, locked T-1s for our Internet/e-mail connection here since we own the entire block so cannot yet get a high-speed cable connection without a lot of dough. We are a non-profit. So I called Covad, they are on the West Coast, probably warmer out there, and three people later, they said that yes they were the ones who did this, (add the spf record) but no, they didn't/would not do it. (Figure that one out.) I further explained our problem to the third person, he was actually with Covad, not just a support person, and he said we need to get someone from Convio to call them directly and they will see what they can do. The hits just keep on coming! From: Michael B.

Or where? In our DNS set-up? This is from our Convio e-mailers, they are being blocked in sending some of our e-mails. They said we needed to do this. I work with two other firms using external e-mails, no problem. I don't agree, but... How do SPF records need to be set up for an organization using Convio? The "From" address in email marketing sent from Convio will typically use an Internet domain owned by the Convio client in question. To pass a Sender ID check, SPF records which identify Convio as a legitimate source of email need to be published by each client in the DNS for each domain they use in "From" lines in email marketing. Determining what the complete SPF policy should be for a domain is a matter for each organization's IT team; however, Convio offers the following guidance: IF your organization operates its own office email server AND Convio is the only service that sends email on your organization's behalf, then the following SPF record will meet your needs: v=spf1 +mx +include:outboundmail.convio.net ?all An SPF-based spam filter will translate this as: "Servers specifically allowed to send mail are (i) our inbound mail server(s), and (ii) Convio's servers. For mail from any other source, treat it as if this SPF record was never published." --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist
