I make no apologies for forgetting to introduce myself, i have had two days of two sides passing the buck.
Last week the domain aceticket.co.uk was sending and recieving email without a problem. It all stopped on Saturday.
My registrar is dyndns and my dns entries are pasted below from the email from support this afternoon:-
I am unsure why that error was recieved as we are properly returning
queries for your domaain and its records.

However your mail server seems to be working incorrectly. When
attempting to send a test call ahead I can not properly perform the call
aheads due to each address I am setting with the MAIL FROM: command
returning as a SPF look up error. The two addresses I tried both have
valid SPF records.
mail from:
451 SPF lookup failure (#4.3.0)
mail from:
451 SPF lookup failure (#4.3.0)
dyndns.com. 84767 IN TXT "v=spf1 mx/24 ptr
ip4:63.208.196.0/24 ip4:204.13.248.0/22 a:lists.dyndns.com
ptr
pensrs.net includeutbound.mailhop.org ~all"
google.com. 300 IN TXT "v=spf1
include:_netblocks.google.com ~all"
I would contact your mail administrator regarding this issue. As I can
not set a valid MAIL FROM address I can not test to see if your server
will accept mail to sales@aceticket.co.uk. I also noticed your server is
running extremely slow at the moment and would take up to a few minutes
for me to get a response from a command.
So, several hours of "live chat" later and the nameservers are:-
ns1679.ukVPS Hostinghosting.com
ns1680.ukVPS Hostinghosting.com
We are still at an impasse.
My simple solution is to pack up my bags and go home but i am a glutton for punishment!
Anyone able to help?
For the porpose of clarification, the domain is registered elsewhere, somewhere other than euk.
Thanks for any help anyone can give.
