Email sending failure

Email sending failure

Dear Zoho Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well. Apologies for the inconvenience, but I need your assistance with an ongoing issue.

Yesterday, I was unable to reply to one of my clients whose email is hosted by ProtonMail (proton.me). Upon investigation, I discovered that my domain had been blacklisted by Spamhaus. I promptly addressed this issue with them, provided proof that the listing was a mistake, and they have since removed my domain from their blacklist.

However, despite this resolution, I am still encountering the same bounce-back issue when attempting to respond to my client’s email. Below are the current SPF records for my domain: v=spf1 include:zoho.com ~all


Also here is the error reports
