I use zoneedit.com as they allow you to enter whatever TXT record you like -
and the first 5 domains are free :-)

Some of us must use the ISPs mail servers. My IP address is blacklisted
because it is using DHCP. I had been doing my own email for years,
until
dnsbl.sorbs.net (and others) blacklisted my IP address. I wonder if a
"cease and desist" letter would help?
Sign up with http://dnsmadeeasy.com for an SMTP forwarding account.
They will let you send mail with SMTP AUTH for a particular domain
(or domains, more $$) through their server, which you can then list
in SPF. Since they charge for domains you are allowed to send
from, I assume they use your authentication to validate the domain.
SMTP AUTH is over your choice of a wide selection of ports (since
ISPs often block 25). One domain is $9.95/yr.
I am about to email them about whether the precise addresses to list in
SPF are available. I use their DNS service (fantastic), but have not
used
their email services. I am not affiliated except as a customer. Our
ISP is completely clueless when it comes to DNS - they were supposed to
be supplying secondary servers and kept screwing it up, so we finally gave
up
trying to educate them and tried dnsmadeeasy - which has worked
flawlessly.
All management is via web - no idiot tech flunkies to argue with. Real
techies
maintain and improve the web interface - and they respond to email.
