Here are the IP addresses you need to allow with your SPF (Sender Policy Framework) record:

  2. A secondary IP address should be also be added as a failover IP address of the mail server (206.107.42.9 - mhostap02pwdu.illiad.oclc.org).
  3. The IP address of your Web Server if you are hosting your email.
