We Need help Fast!
We have recently changed domains and decided to update our SPF and
Sender ID records.
Our first question is our syntax which is shown below. Our SPF record
passes perfectly at openspf.org although we would still like an expert
to check it.
Second question is could publishing the Sender ID or SPF2 record below
be hurting us?
Should me modify it or remove [the spf2] record all together? We have
heard mixed opinions because we use a distributed list server
environment and headers are below. One rumor we heard is that the PRA
check in Sender ID could actually provide false positives and thus
really hurt us as we publish several B2B electronic newsletters daily.
domain: verticalmailcorp.com
Published SPF record: v=spf1 ip4:4.71.172.57 a mx ptr
a:gothamlistserver.com ~all
Published Sender ID Record: spf2.0/pra a mx IP4:4.71.172.57 -all
We sent our regular list of about 300K today which we normally send
daily and noticed lower opens and clicks than avaerage and hoping that
an incorrectly spf2 record did not cause this!
Also > our ESP recently changed our header configuration in that instead
of the headers showing the Return-path of bounces@verticalmailcorp.com
to mcgtitan@gothamlistserver.com same for the envelope-from which is
now showing as well.
This has us majorly concerned for both deliverability and authentication
purposes and was one of the main reasons we modded our SPF records.
Clarification is needed asap on this issue
