Adding a 2nd smtp server; update
Thanks for the help to all who replied.
nslookup
Default Server: Address:

> set srchlist=
> server 66.28.0.45
Default Server: res1.dns.cogentco.com
Address: 66.28.0.45

> set type=txt
> c-span.org.c-span.org
Server: res1.dns.cogentco.com
Address: 66.28.0.45

Non-authoritative answer:
c-span.org.c-span.org text =

"v=spf1 ip4:38.100.31.161 ip4:38.100.31.150 -all"


Works good. H'mmm, I wonder why I have to enter the domain twice?

Because as Alan said you have likely entered it incorrectly. There is no published TXT record for c-span.org.

Sam,

You've created your DNS record incorrectly, probably forgetting the "."
at the end. See alan's reply from the 27th. He explains this in detail.
