I use an SMTP server on my machine and send via my ADSL link. As HELO info is different from ISP sometimes my mail gets rejected.
How can I add an SPF record to my mail at Awardspace?
I have the SPF record string available but don't know how to add it at the control panel.

Do you have paid hosting? If so, I believe you can set MX records to the IP address of your machine, assuming that it is accessible by other machines and that it is accepting communications on port 80, port 25, and port 110.

No I do not have a paid service and even if I did it would not help as the problem lies with the fact that the transmitting ip address is the dynamic ip address assigned by my ISP when I use my SMTP server while the email HELO ID is that of my domain which in this case is bbenson.us
The only work around this situation would be to add the SPF info string to the email info at AS or get a static ip so I can sort of get logged onto the major providers such as hotmail (most troublesome) as being a non-spam source. I have trouble only with hotmail and one other provider so I guess I'll just have to make do for right now. ----- BTW it was nice to meet you on Yahoo. Thanks for the user community support.

Well, you'll need paid hosting if you want Awardspace to handle any SMTP, whether or not the SMTP servers are Awardspace's or not. I don't think you can set any records on free hosting either.
