If someone has an issue with the outlook email how to fix it?

You need to think about these auto-responders in terms of events. If you can put data up on MailChimp when an event takes place, you can manage auto-responders off of that data. Here is some additional information from their website. http://kb.mailchimp.com/article/how-do-i-create-an-autoresponder

I don't think you need to use a Virtual private server at this time unless you are getting so much traffic that GoDaddy is limiting you. Here is info from Wordpress about email forwarding: https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-forwarding/ Seeing as you probably bought your domain, I really suggest a Google Apps for Business account, because even though it is Gmail, your emails will come to whomever you send to as from your domain. There are a lot of other features with it as well, you can look at it from here: https://apps.google.com/intx/en_us/products/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=na-us-en-apps-bkws-gafw-trial-e&utm_term=google%20apps%20for%20work&KWID=43700007880944900 If you need any help, I can for sure help you with your email, as well as work out how to get Wordpress to do what you want. Even if you don't go with Google Apps, there are lots of other ways to get done what you need. For sure though, if the current emails are being marked as spam for your users, or not even getting delivered that is not good for your reputation.

I have a tremendous amount of experience sending emails from new domains - perhaps 2,000,000 emails per year - and the long and short of it is this: email deliverability is tremendously complex. Why? For one thing, because of the constant battle between spammers, ISPs, ESPs and other players, among other things. Also, because email still uses some very old and outdated protocols that make this all more difficult. If your business is going to rely heavily on email, I would encourage to educate yourself now so that you won't be stymied as you grow. Many of the things I learned were through trial and error - which can be excruciatingly frustrating. Just a few of the things you should immediately begin working on: proper SPF, SenderID, DKIM compliance along with solid DNS set up. Additionally, if you will use email heavily, I would start now putting the pieces in place for later white labeling aa nd possible dedicated IP sending. In terms of the actual email content itself, that is another subject you will want to investigate. I'm not saying these things to discourage you - but rather to help you avoid the mistakes we made in the past. If you need a hand getting a little grip on this I probably can steer you in the right direction pretty quickly. Wish you the best in your endeavor! Adam

Some people will not recieve the email without an spf record. You are correct, the best way is to add any domain the emails appear to come from. If you run your own server and have WHM then you will need to enable SPF for each cpanel account that needs it. Then in cpanel under Email Authentication enable SPF and then add a record in "Include List (INCLUDE):"

Do you have an idea of what kind of invalid emails you are receiving? That will help you determine which vendor is the best fit for you. For example do you consider support@, info@, or postmaster@ invalid, some vendors will weed those out for you? Or are you just concerned with making sure the email has an accurate Domain/MX Record? Will blocking SPAM IP addresses be enough to address your needs, if so you need a vendor who checks agains URI DNSBLs. With that in mind, here's a good blog article about the top vendors.
