re: Anyone else having problems with this new SPF authentication?

I could theoretically do it (Google and Dreamhost have tutorials on it), but my website is hosted by the provider, so I can't edit the DNS stuff for my site.
This thread was more of a curiosity as to why I was affected, b/c I'm not a bulk email sender (allegedly that's the target for this new requirement) and I haven't heard many others complaining.
If they can't fix this, I'm going to have to leave them and I like their output/product and it's pretty cheap compared to the other options.

You're affected because you don't have an SPF record and Yahoo recently made them a requirement. Which is crazy because SPF has been a standard for ten years.

That doesn't matter. DNS is like the yellow pages of the Internet. It's the public record of "These IP addresses are associated with these domains." SPF is a type of DNS record that tells the rest of the Internet "If you see email from me from these IP addresses, they should be mine."

Who registered the domain name? Is that something done through them or did you do it through someone like GoDaddy?
