Search Again: Re: spf support in QuickDNS? From: Codger Date: Monday, August 16, 2004 Time: 6:37:46 pm Well, the pobox.com docs just didn't address it. Here's how I dealt with virtual domain spf records. They all simply point back to the mail servers spf like so: virtual.com TXT v=spf1 redirect=realmail.net realmail.net TXT v=spf1 a mx ~all Curiously I had the 'ptr' paramater in the line and Chris Buxton told me that was a security concern, so I took it out.
