I figured as much. What I don't understand is why this is coming up as SPF_FAIL instead of SPF_SOFTFAIL. My understanding is the ~all in the SPF record should be seen as a soft fail or is there something in the rule that overrides this if ptr is used. > > here softfail give from mta defer_if_permit <reseaon> > > send a email to postmaster and show your logs about the softfail > problem, thay will thank you for helping :) Thanks. I am trying to contact the mail administrator through the user to get them to correct their SPF record. Neil
