    Make sure to set SPF record for your domain to allow sending email from your IP ;) If you allow IP 123.124.125.126 sending email for domain abc.com. You should create a TXT record on your domain:

    v=spf1 mx a ip4:123.124.125.126 ~all

    Or add: include:_spf.google.com If you're using Google Apps with the domain. It should look like:

    v=spf1 mx a include:_spf.google.com ip4:123.124.125.126 ~all

    Make sure you add dkim key to domain too :D

  • Do you know how i do this at godaddy?

  • If it's gmail, it's probably rDNS. They're big on that.

    Check that first please.

    SPF record: http://help.godaddy.com/article/680

  • Okay
    Have put some record in it
    Need to wait some time

  • While you're waiting, please be sure to check rDNS. :)

  • Stupid question but what is rDNS?

  • Yomero, you're not using a shortner link, are you?.....

    :(

  • I got you? xDDDD

  • Beats me. I can't follow the link.

    rDNS stands for Reserve DNS, it means when someone tracert your IP, the IP will show your domain of choice. In your situation, you should use the domain of your email, if you use email [email protected] as sender email, you should use abc.com as rDNS :D

    For example, when you tracert to 208.67.222.222 it will show resolver1.opendns.com, resolver1.opendns.com is rDNS for IP 208.67.222.222.

    I'm newbie so correct me if I wrong :P

  • Okay

    And how can i set that rDNS?

  • Ask to your provider. SolusVM have that function, but in general is disabled, so... ticket

  • Made a ticket!

    Thanks for all your help guys!
