GitLab currently sends mails as From: Gitlab <gitlab@gitlab.wikimedia.org>. For gitlab.wikimedia.org we don't have SPF records configured. So some providers mark mails from GitLab as spam.
We should add SPF records for gitlab.wikimedia.org.
An alternative solution could be to send mails as gitlab@wikimedia.org.

I've deployed the softfail records and checked that they're in place:
❯ for i in 0 1 2; do
ns=ns${i}.wikimedia.org
echo $ns
dig +short @${ns} -t txt gitlab.wikimedia.org
done
ns0.wikimedia.org
"v=spf1 include:wikimedia.org ~all"
ns1.wikimedia.org
"v=spf1 include:wikimedia.org ~all"
ns2.wikimedia.org
"v=spf1 include:wikimedia.org ~all"We'll close this ticket and get in touch with the original reporters to see if this fixes the issue.
