I am using the latest and greatest production ver of SA. In it, there is an SPF test and I am having issues with what it is comparing to. Below is the email and the spf record. My emails fail when I remove this "ip4:10.1.3" but pass when I put it in. My issue is why is SA looking at the original sending host (the self reported IP to boot and not the actual external IP). Laptop users could have any IP and for SPF to work, you need to focus on the mail servers. They are the only ones that matter in this.
Am I wrong here? Is my mail server putting the wrong headers in?
