It looks like you will need to add a TXT record to accomplish this:
Log-in to your domain manager. Find the DNS record section, and then fill this in: Enter the Record Host and Record Answer " v=spf1 mx include:zoho.com ~all "
Zoho includes instructions on how to accomplish this for a few domain registrars.
