    In the SPF configuration for a domain:
    I Dont understand this -> "Are emails sent from all servers of this domain?" It doesn't make sense to me :)
    Also -> "Inherit SPF Record from this zone?" This text input what kind of data expects? A Yes/No Answer ? :(

    In the CNAME configuration, if for example I have a site www.mysite.com with codomain mysite.com, then is this valid?
    Hostname = something
    tarjet = www.mysite.com
    Because this lets me to the "shared ip" page when using something.mysite.com in the url.

    This makes sense if you have multiple servers for one domain.
    You can follow this wizard: http://old.openspf.org/wizard.html
    The ISPConfig form is structured the same way.

    Does www.mysite.com point to the right IP address?
