Thank you Stephen, I appreciate your help but another poster had something closer to what I really need (and I can cut out the wifi router). Many thanks P On 21/8/19 5:25 pm, Stephen via luv-main wrote:

Still not fixed yet..... the SPF problem that is. On 21/8/19 6:16 pm, Piers via luv-main wrote:

It is not legal to have more than 1 SPF record. $ dig @ns1.webgen.com.au -t txt recruitonline.com.au +short "v=spf1 ip4:119.252.17.64/28 all" "v=spf1 a mx ip4:103.16.128.141/32 ~all" And the first one is wrong with "all", the second one... it is much better if you are not testing and are sure of your record to use "-all" Cheers A. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEAREIAB0WIQTJAoMHtC6YydLfjUOoFmvLt+/i+wUCXWnMmwAKCRCoFmvLt+/i +6bfAP9NZfT5lrDQauYmO34piRn/EXpWnJbpV9T2lzzPlAjMeAEAkf0o192bncxO mWcHtTfDK76mvGt0xT6fpmv32wGM0RQ= =SHWJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Thanks Andrew, I thought you were referring to the email address for the list - rowan.id.au I will tidy up the work one. The first one is a legacy one because that IP hasn't been used for a long time - glad you caught it. The second one is right. We use MailGun as well so I should probably keep the ~all. Thanks Piers

They *should* correct those unless they are in testing mode and are not confident that the record properly identifies all of their servers.

Thanks Mike, We have MG on its own cname as per their docs so it isn't part of our main SPF. Cheers Piers

Thanks Andrew, There has been a good suggestion that meets the brief (infact on face value reomves the WAP). Happy (preffered) not to have an "app" for stuff. Logs are fine for me. All the best P On 21/8/19 6:12 pm, Andrew McGlashan via luv-main wrote:

One of the ideas of this system is that you can control whom has access or not fairly easily with a mobile app.
