To enable SPF on outgoing mail all you have to do is create a SPF record
and put it in your /var/bind/domain.tld.hosts file, assuming your using
Bind.

That's all I did and when I send email to Google its says...

Received-SPF: pass (google.com: domain of jason@jasoncarson.ca designates
69.196.152.151 as permitted sender) client-ip=69.196.152.151;

I use Postfix and recommend you switch. If you want to filter incoming
mail with SPF then you have to configure some stuff in the
/etc/postfix/main.cf and /etc/postfix/master.cf files. Google it for the
way to do it.
