I finally found some time to look into the above (because one of my  
customers also made me aware of this).

For all my mail domains (unfortunately not x2go.org), I now have set  
up a SPF TXT record on the DNS hosts.

For the lists.x2go.org subdomain a bind9 entry should look like this:

"""
$ORIGIN lists.x2go.org.
@			IN	A	178.63.100.243
@			IN	AAAA	2a01:4f8:121:5085:250:56ff:fe15:236d
@			MX     10 ymir.das-netzwerkteam.de.     ; Mail Exchanger for mailing list

; SPF Record for our MXes
@			IN	TXT	"v=spf1 mx a:freya.das-netzwerkteam.de -all"
"""

@Heinz: Can you deploy this for lists.x2go.org? Thanks.

Thanks!
Mike
