Interesting note that we also saw this a few weeks ago too and had to add DKIM to get mail to work to domains that only had SPF.

I'm very glad for that warning.

I have not seen that in production yet, but do have a tech debt ticket for adding DKIM signing to ~40 hosted domains. I guess it's likely to REALLY matter soon. Sure am glad for having done pilots and standing up needed infrastructure.

IMHO the worst 'tax' imposed on smaller mailbox/business email providers by the big guuys is via DKIM & DMARC enforcement. SPF records are a fast set-and-forget magic handshake. There's apparently no limit to how much work one can put into getting DKIM+DMARC working well, as there's always some weird breakage lurking out there somewhere.

A little testing shows that gmail appears to be rejecting all mail from domains with no SPF record. Having them create the SPF record returned their domains to deliverability in about an hour.
