Peter, I ran a few logged SPF results to test against your checker.
For one transaction I got on August 19:
IP: 199.237.55.172
CDN: yes.jcmanagementservices.com
RPD:
b-p0ckbcgbhbjd-iaagchg-000-(_at_)msg(_dot_)jcmanagementservices(_dot_)com
The SPF record is:
v=spf1 mx ptr a include
This results in a PASS because of the MX match.
Your checker indicates:
"199.237.55.172 may send in the name of the domain."
And the details indicates:
"SPF policy evaluation finished with SPF Unknown."
I retested this by changing the IP to see how it handled a bad IP.
IP: 199.237.55.173
and our systems returns a PERMERROR which I think is correct the INCLUDE is
incorrect.
But your checker says:
"199.237.55.173 may send in the name of the domain."
"SPF policy evaluation finished with SPF Unknown."
Shouldn't your checker throw an error on this? Not a pass?

Subject: [spf-discuss] Updated SPF validator and a new checker
Hello,
FYI, we have updated our SPF syntax validator and added an SPF
evaluation check service to our website.
SPF Syntax Validator: http://www.vamsoft.com/orf/spft/spfvalidator.asp
SPF Checker: http://www.vamsoft.com/orf/spft/spfcheck.asp
Both services are based on the original SPF Classic draft
(http://www.libspf.org/files/spf-draft-200405.txt) and the Checker
provides detailed log of the evaluation, so it may be useful for
troubleshooting purposes.
I thought that you may be interested (and hope that you will tell me
if you find any problems :) Note that the above URLs are temporary,
the final services will be published without /spft.
Peter
