all mails going to gmail SPAM (sendmail on centos) 127.0.0.1 problem?

UPDATE ON SPF CHECK http://www.openspf.org/Why:




The SPF check gives me this: An SPF-enabled mail server rejected a message that claimed an envelope sender address of support@ourdomain.com. An SPF-enabled mail server received a message from ourdomain.com (x.x.x.X) that claimed an envelope sender address of support@ourdomain.com. The domain ourdomain.com has authorized ourdomain.com (x.x.x.x) to send mail on its behalf, so the message should have been accepted. It is impossible for us to say why it was rejected



UPDDATE: I am using Google Apps to send email from and receive email from. Maybe this helps in researching our problem. We only have MX records for gmail set up and are now thinking this might be an issue? If a mailserver receives an email from www.ourdomain.com and cannot find an MX record for that IP, that might be bad or not?



all our mails are going to the gmail spam folder.
Mails are not spammy or bulky, just registration confirmation emails from our web app.



The SPF headers give me the following



Received-SPF: pass (google.com: best guess record for domain of apache@www.ourdomain.com designates x.x.x.x as permitted sender) client-ip=x.x.x.x;

Authentication-Results: mx.google.com; spf=pass (google.com: best guess record for domain of apache@www.ourdomain.com designates x.x.x.x as permitted sender) smtp.mail=apache@www.ourdomain.com
Received: from www.ourdomain.com (localhost [127.0.0.1])


where x.x.x.x is our full IP address



UPDATE
my complete mail and headers are now:

Have a good day!
ourdomain.com.com



ps: I have set a correct SPF record that allows our x.x.x.x ip to send emails



UPDATE:



how can we make sure that google doesn't see us as spam. I've read that gmail will get an email from @ourdomain.com and it will run an nslookup or something to see if we actually have a receiving MX server set up?



Can someone confirm this and give me the nslookup command that I can test with. I'm confused as nslookup on ourdomain.com gives the correct MX records, but mxrecord on WWW.ourdomain.com doesnt.




The hostname of the machine we are sending with is www.ourdomain.com.
May that be a problem?
