Re: SPF Record Issue

thanks for all the help.  I still have a couple of questions...

1.  Can you have more than 1 spf txt records for a domain?
2.  What does putting host name before v=spf1 do for us?  is that
somehow used in conjunction with helo?  Can you have multiple host
names separated by spaces before v=spf1?
3.  I am not quite sure what you mean by ...
if they are the same machine then you should investigate and compile a
list of all its ips so that you can pass the common (does helo ==
ip-in-A-of-helo test many receivers perform to weed out bots)
could you give an example.

Thanks again
