The Mails from Joomla to customer as well as vendor are being marked as "phishing" mails. As per solutions provided in the other posts, I checked the header and it is being marked as "Spf-Fail". What is the solution to this issue?
Many Thanks.

You need to:
Create the sending e-mail account on your server/host
Set up DomainKeys and SPF on your hosting account
Configure the account as SMTP, with the CORRECT e-mail adress on
Joomla Global Configuration (if you need to get replies to another
account, use the "reply to" field, but that isn't very good, as
sometimes it counts points towards spam detectors).
Compose a legitimate message (i.e. NOT spam)
Have valid e-mails on your list (not bought lists, or collected by
any way that doesn't have the explicit permission from the owner to
receive e-mail).
Good luck.
From Wikipedia:
Sender Policy Framework (SPF) is is an email validation system
designed to prevent email spam by detecting email spoofing, a common
vulnerability, by verifying sender IP addresses.
You can probably fix this by changing the sender and perhaps the reply-to email addresses to match the originating domain name.
