    Are you forwarding the emails? If so, cannot have SPF. It specically says that in their FAQs. That will break forwarding. I would imagine this is it.

    Does SPF break email forwarding?

    Stuart Gathman's opinion is recorded at http://archives.listbox.com/spf-disc...0410/0488.html.

    Yes, it does. You'll have to switch from forwarding, where the envelope sender is preserved, to remailing, where the envelope sender is changed. But don't worry, we're working on providing SRS patches for the four major opensource MTAs, so that when you upgrade to an SPF-aware version, this problem will be solved also.

    Repackaging is a bad idea as then any SPAM repackaged looks like it is coming from your server.

    Is the address you are sending it to mail@isp.com being blocked because of nobody@mydedicatedserver.com

    If so there is a fix for the nobody@ issue which has become more and more common of late as more and more mail exchanges block this becuase it is a well known source of spam. Do a forum search for nobody@ as there is an exim tweak that will fix it and send mail out as username@mydedicatedserver.com. AOL and RR block addresses from nobody@ and lots more are joining the block club.

    And how do you know the ISP did not change their SPF rules since?
