sorry to just butt in like this
Should SPF parsers:
1) declare a syntax error and abort returning unknown?
2) use the first value?
3) use the last value?
From my 10 year development experience, I would definately go for (1).

good catch. well, the spec did say
The TZ timezone field syntax is
( '+' / '-' ) DIGIT DIGIT [ ':' DIGIT DIGIT ]
representing an offset from UTC. See ISO8601.
so the :30 is optional, but i'll add an example that shows it.
and i'll get rid of the :.

spf is case insensitive for things like this, but i'll lowercase it to
fit with the other mechanisms.

I'll introduce concatenation:
"v=spf1 a"
"v=spf1 mx"
"v=spf1 default=deny"
would be equivalent to
"v=spf1 a mx default=deny"
Now the only remaining question is:
What do we do if we see
"v=spf1 a mx default=deny default=allow"
?
