ZXCS is commonly identified through SPF includes that route mail via its gateway IP blocks. Because the gateway is shared across many senders, poor practices or abuse by other customers can degrade reputation for all users of that IP space, potentially affecting your deliverability even if your sending practices are sound. Monitor ZXCS IP reputation independently, maintain DMARC alignment to authenticate your domain rather than relying on gateway identity, and be aware that shared infrastructure introduces reputation risk beyond your direct control.
