I'm not sure if you are referring to just the BQ system or not, but if so,
here is my two cents, for what it's worth.
From what I can see, you would have to enter an SPF record for each of the
vsites on your server(s). I'm sure there are a whole slew of folks here that
could offer up a script that would do it for you. I just don't know the BQ
well enough to offer up that kind of advice.
None the less, if you go into one of the visites (in the GUI) on your
server, in the DNS section, you can add a TXT record and that is where you
would add the SPF.

That does tell me what it is (which I already knew the purpose) but I would
like a Step-By-Step of how others add these records to their CentOS systems.
Is it a command line process or is this somehow done in the GUI? I did not
see an SPF record in the DNS section in the GUI. Is an SPF record created
for each site or is it Server wide?
Thanks,
