Following is a typical example of an SPF record for a typical domain "flooringamerica-carpetstudio" that has a single Exchange email server located at the IP address 69.89.122.66. SPF flooringamerica-carpetstudio.com 54800 IN TXT "v=spf1 ip4:69.89.122. 66 mx ~all" My questions are... If the ISP "A" that provides Internet data service to 69.89.122.66 does not have the capability to publish SPF records, which restrictions and/or limitations are there about locating authoritative DNS records at another DNS provider at ISP "B" that does have the capability to publish DNS records? In other words may one move all DNS records (A, MX, Reverse DNS, SPF, etc.) from ISP "A" to ISP "B", or are there some DNS records (i.e. Reverse DNS) that must be published by whatever ISP that provides Internet data service to the Exchange email server? If there is no restriction about locating ALL DNS records at ISP "B" while continuing to obtain Internet data service from ISP "A", how, does one locate ISPs that offer publication of ALL DNS records independent of Internet data services?
