Many of the large email providers (Gmail, Yahoo, Office 365) are getting picky about accepting email that has no 'validation' mechanisms. Even if your email is not spam or junk they may treat it as so and either reject the message or put it in the recipients junk folder.
However, customers
Typically, our customers would use <code>smtp.aa.net.uk</code> to send email - however '''thought must be given to other servers that may also send email from your domain - eg you may have a 3rd party web server or some other service that sends email on our behalf - these would want to be included too.''' In these cases, you'd add the IP addresses as: ip4:x.x.x.x and/or ip6:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx::xxxx▼

To cover the IP addresses of the A&A email servers, you can include <code>_spf_include.aa.net.uk</code>, eg:
v=spf1 mx include:_spf_include.aa.net.uk ~all
