DNS Zone Help

My email keeps being sent as spam, so I contacted my host and they told me I needed to update my DNS zone to add an SPF record. I really don't know how to do this, so if anyone could help me out, I will marry you.

Here's the current DNS zone:


"evadehost.com.db" 27L, 720C
; cPanel 11.15.0-BETA_18031
; Zone file for evadehost.com
$TTL 14400
@ 86400 IN SOA ns1.sphosting.net. admin.sphosting.com. (
2008021700 ; serial, todays date+todays
86400 ; refresh, seconds
7200 ; retry, seconds
3600000 ; expire, seconds
86400 ) ; minimum, seconds

evadehost.com. IN NS ns1.sphosting.net.
evadehost.com. IN NS ns2.sphosting.net.


evadehost.com. IN A 66.197.146.101

localhost.evadehost.com. IN A 127.0.0.1

evadehost.com. IN MX 0 evadehost.com.

mail IN CNAME evadehost.com.
www IN CNAME evadehost.com.
ftp IN A 66.197.146.101
site-help 14400 IN A 66.197.146.101

SPF stands for "Sender Policy Framework" but those records are being displayed as TXT in the DNS. Here are three excellent resources on this matter - No1, No2, No3. HTH.
