I configured the DNS SPF record for my domain, pairofdocs.net, and I added 'include:bz.d.mailin.fr' to the record. Dumb question alert: Why on earth did I included this as I have no idea what the domain is?

Looks like it's because your mail provider is being handled by mailin.fr I'm assuming that's what Zoho is using. Can you point me to some documentation on how you setup your e-mail?

Namecheap is your domain and hosting provider?

Thanks. Yes, NameCheap provides both DNS and hosting services.

Also, I looked at the text of a recent test email I sent myself and saw mailin.fr in the message, so I will leave it in the SPF record.
