CPanel/WHM (Exim) SPF Records

Jun 2, 2008

I seem to be experiencing some difficulty adding SPF records via "Edit DNS Zone". When adding these records and checking them with several SPF record checkers, it always reports a record such as the following:

“v=spf1

Which turns out to be invalid, and definitely not the record I had specified. The record I specified looks like the following:

"v=spf1 a mx ip4:XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX ~all"

XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX being a valid IP, of course.

Is there known issues when adding these types of records via WHM?

And to make it clear, I have added these records as TXT type, with and without the quotes.

Cpanel, MX Records, 3rd Party DNS

Apr 4, 2007

I use a third-party DNS host for a domain hosted on a shared server with cpanel. The A record point to that server so that the website on it is shown, and for e-mail, it uses a different server.

How does the domain have to configured on the cpanel server, the one that hosts the website, so that e-mail originating from within it go to the external mail server?

And a related question - after the necessary changes are done, can the cpanel server still send e-mail with that domain name (say, if a script attempts to send an a message)?

Cpanel DNS Only Server Not Returning MX Records

Jan 7, 2008

I have a Cpanel DNS-ONLY secondary nameserver at ns2.frozenblues.com that returns A records but does not return MX records, despite the zone files having correctly synched with the primary WHM (11.11.0)/Cpanel server (at ns1.frozenblues.com). Again, the files in /var/named are all correct on the DNS-ONLY server incuding the MX info, and it is returning A records, but not returning MX.

Exim/Cpanel SPF

Jun 26, 2008

How do you get Exim to rewrite/remove

Received: from ip.isp.com ([123.123.123.123])
by mx.myhost.net with esmtpa (Exim 4.69)

I'm trying to avoid the error

Received-SPF: softfail (google.com: domain of transitioning me@myhost.net does not designate 123.123.123.123 as permitted sender) client-ip=123.123.123.123;

Basically, any email thats sent through myhost.net should look like it was sent directly.

Exim - How To Remove Rbl Lists From Exim.conf

May 2, 2007

I am having issues in receieving emails. For some reason, the rbl lists I had setup are causing the server to reject emails (retry - timeout). So, I need to take this rbl list completely. How can I do that? exim.conf is locked and using the advanced editor is no fun even though I tried it putting the dnslists without the rbl causing the problem.
