Hey guys, I am currently running exchange 2010, I have implemented SPF record, and tried to implement dkim/domain keys using domain sink, but it doesn't seem to work. The problem I am having is that all my emails go to spam, whenever I email some one whether it is msn/yahoo/gmail. For Msn i fixed it, since I subscribed to senders framework program.
here are the orignal copies of Gmail and yahoo:

Explanation of the possible results (adapted from
draft-kucherawy-sender-auth-header-04.txt):
"pass"
the message passed the authentication test.
"fail"
the message failed the authentication test.
"softfail"
the message failed the authentication test, and the authentication
method has either an explicit or implicit policy which doesn't require
successful authentication of all messages from that domain.
"neutral"
the authentication method completed without errors, but was unable
to reach either a positive or a negative result about the message.
"temperror"
a temporary (recoverable) error occurred attempting to authenticate
the sender; either the process couldn't be completed locally, or
there was a temporary failure retrieving data required for the
authentication. A later retry may produce a more final result.
"permerror"
a permanent (unrecoverable) error occurred attempting to
authenticate the sender; either the process couldn't be completed
locally, or there was a permanent failure retrieving data required
for the authentication.

The following is based off of the IP I see in your logs as the mail sending IP of 67.55.9.182.
You have a PTR entry, which is good.
However your forward and reverse should match ideally. The reverse entry leads me to believe that you are running this off of a DSL ISP connection. That is enough to get your mail marked as spam in some systems. They do not like seeing mail coming from "home" or "consumer" connections.
Your IP is also listed in several blacklists:
This will also result in your mail being sent to the spam bin.
Resolve the above issues and you will likely see your mail being accepted as ham. Hope that helps and let me know if you have any questions.
