  • no YOU'RE an MX record.

    Ive checked my domain via https://toolbox.googleapps.com/ green ticks across the board apart from dmarc/dkim (which I presume @Dammit is the forum expert on)

    SPF has a blue circled 'i':
    The following IP addresses are taken from the includes and IP4/IP6 directives within this domains SPF record.

    I can seemingly send messages from the Mail client and from GMail within Chrome but they have a hit and miss approach on whether they're received.

    I can't receive them at my hotmail address from either source. I can receive them at some other domains I own. Other recipients report receiving them, others don't. Really weird. Wholly frustrating as my phone is on the blink as well so I'm using Google Voice for calls and don't have a means to SMS/whatsapp someone for quick 'did you get my email?' checks.

  • I know very little about email config but that looks like a lot of SPF entries - isn't there a limit? That's why people tend to use host names that are load balanced down the line, rather than specify every IP address of each mailserver

    ie. 172.217.32.0 is Google so why aren't you just using the google hostnames? What do they say about configuring SPF record with use on their service?

  • I used the SPF record template google provided.

    They said copy paste this into your txt record on your domain hosting. I did. That was the result :/

    Only did it today mind.
