The DNS report tool at <http://www.DNSreport.com> now gives a yellow
flag warning for domain without a SPF record.

Do note that this testing tool is quite broken. I gives a spurious "No
glue records" warning on *every* .ORG domain, for instance, and was
never fixed. It makes a FAIL if there is no MX (even for domains with
an A like example.org), etc.

Do not use it.

You may want to add an SPF record before October 1, 2004, the target
date for domains to have SPF records in place.

Bullshit.
