1.2.3.4
1.2.3.4/24

That quote is preceeded by this text:

   "At present, the domain's A records contain the following addresses:"

It does NOT say: "A mechanisms" (which is correct). And when I enter an IP 
address there, I get an "IPv4" mechanism, not "a" (which is correct):

   v=spf2.0/pra ... ip4:1.2.3.4/24


Are we talking about the same wizard?? When i put an ip address in the box next 
to the "Enter any additional IP addresses (or ranges of addresses) you wish to 
add to your SPF Record (one address or address range per line). Examples: ", i 
do get:

v=spf2.0/pra a:1.2.3.4 ~all

which is wrong. I just checked, and this is still the current behaviour.
