SPF_SOFTFAIL

Hi,
I have a problem with some servers that seems to see my email as spam.
My header from some of these emails looks like this 
X-MailScanner-SpamCheck: spam, SpamAssassin on whoville (score=1.384, required 1, SPF_SOFTFAIL 1.38)

i have the current spf test records on my dns:
@   v=spf1 a mx a:mydomain2.com mx:mydomain.com mx:mydomain2.com ~all
mail.mydomain.com. v=spf1 a -all

Please help,
Thank you,
Daniel

Without the rest of the mail header and the REAL SPF record nobody
will be able to help you (effectively your email only consists of the
initial sentence "I have a problem...").

	SoftFail means that you sent the message through a server that
was not covered by your SPF record.
