Well it could be, although in your case (scoopta.email?) I don't think it is.

Another possibility is that it's a linode issue? 

And as it happens I have a linode VM which is currently mailing only a single daily system report to a gmail address and I notice that gmail is checking the ipv4 SPF and that's actually not what I would have expected. 

In this instance there is no james involvement, but as I said, I would have expected this to go over ipv6. I don't especially care and in the past when things definitely were going over ipv6, I've had problems with the linode ipv6 address being in a blocklist - definitely not from anything I've done of course :-)

Incidentally, I found it impossible to get the ipv6 address out of this block list and I wondered at the time if whole ipv6 ranges got blacklisted due to naughtiness from a single address. At the time I solved the problem by stopping ipv6 in exim4, but that config is not in place at the moment.

So maybe a linode issue?
