Beside which, of course, TXT works. _spf doesn't (or at least when I asked before how to put an underscore into a record name in BIND, no-one could answer).


Just do it.

The underscore convention was invented by Paul Vixie who wrote BIND and is
also the author of the SRV draft.

I did. My nameserver died on me and wouldn't come back until I removed it. Since no-one at the time could show me an example bind zone file in which they'd got a '_name' to work, I left it out.

Now I'm fully willing to believe I did something wrong to my file, but I need to know *what*, rather than just being told "it works really".

(For the non-quoted parts of your mail, I follow what you're saying)
