Thus, the message shouldn't be rejected!!!!!
It is impossible to evaluate your claim unless you provide us with
with the MAIL FROM address for the above incident. The HELO domain
is sometimes also required.
SPF is a protocol for authenticating the MAIL FROM address (also known
as return-path), with the connect IP, and HELO as inputs.
You might expect us to assume that MAIL FROM was
"some_user(_at_)uol(_dot_)com(_dot_)br", since
that is what you looked up. But being the suspicious sort, we want to
see some evidence.
