SPF records are just a specialized DNS entry (as I understand it). You 
will need to add your SPF record into whichever DNS servers your domain 
is using, which at the moment, I guess would be GoDaddy's (you don't say 
what your domain is)

The receiving server checks your domain's nameservers to find the SPF 
entry. You can see these for yourself, with 'dig domain.tld NS' and 'dig 
domain.tld TXT' from something that has dig installed..
