Probably others also forgot it. So please add it.

I think the wizard's should point this out, along with the 
requirements for all MX and A records to have an SPF record 
(unless there is a wildcard DNS solution)

<SNIP> 

Therefore AOL should add following SPF records:

omr-m10.mx.aol.com. TXT "v=spf1 ip4:64.12.138.22 -all"
omr-m11.mx.aol.com. TXT "v=spf1 ip4:64.12.138.23 -all"
etc.

IMHO much better, and easier to do this though

| omr-m10.mx.aol.com. TXT "v=spf1 a -all"
| omr-m11.mx.aol.com. TXT "v=spf1 a -all"
| etc.

Less prone to errors, and it shouldnt cause an extra lookup, as 
other checks by the MTA would cache (or use the cached) lookup 
of the A record.
