​Well, this is the same tech support from Australia ?
​Probably works fine over there
I would suggest to have them remote login to here in the USA and try this
test
Because none of us are imagining this
I still get a SPF Fail on your email, with the IPv6 address designation
The only reason it doesn't get pushed into the Spambox is because I had to
add another Email Filter
But I still get the SPF Warning Banner at the top of the email when I open
your message.
Have them to look at the message source of our emails, not theirs.
