Recently i got a dedicated server (running CentOS), and im trying to send emails using a php to hotmail, gmail, yahoo, etc..
But the emails keep going to junk email,
this are the headers i get in gmail, i changed my domain name to "example.com", and my ip to 99.99.99.99

whats wrong here? i tried everything, im guessing "example.com (example.com [127.0.0.1])" is one of the reasons, but how can i change it so it shows my ip address instead of "127.0.0.1"? what is SPF anyway?
i have googled this a lot, seen many people with the same problem, yet no solutions, you help would really really really reallllyy be much appreciated
