Why is my TXT/SPF record(s) being ignored?

I'm having trouble trying to configure a SPF record in the DNS settings of my domain.

I have created a TXT record with a what should be a valid SPF record.

When I test my domain's DNS setting using http://mxtoolbox.com/domain/ it reports that:

A Valid TXT Record was not found

and

A Valid SPF Record was not found

even though I have definitely set a TXT record and I'm pretty sure the SPF record is valid.

Here are the DNS settings I am using: enter image description here

Besides this the SMTP seems to be functioning properly.

I found some doc about it here
for the txt record:

http://mxtoolbox.com/problem/spf/txt-record

for the spf record:

http://mxtoolbox.com/problem/spf/spf-record

you can find a tool to check your spf record validity at the bottom of both page. Hope it helps
