On Tue, 30 Mar 2004, Lyndon Eaton spewed into the bitstream:

LE>They are unfortunately however using ?all, which I don't think does much
LE>good...

Okay so that is the second time I have heard this reference to ?all being 
useless... as I am really just learning about this would you mind 
explaining why? I am not DNS illiterate but I set mine up based on what 
the wizard gave me and it definitely recommended using all.

This is what I have for moongroup:

moongroup.com. IN TXT "v=spf1 a mx -all"
varmint.moongroup.com. IN TXT "v=spf1 a -all"

Is there something wrong with this?

Also... with respect to AOL I am not seeing anything about SPF when an 
email arrives at moongroup from AOL other then a DUNNO and it seems to 
find no SPF records in DNS:
