You know guys, this whole thread just points up again SPF's greatest
weakness: non-existent documentation!
Let's put this another way: no home-consumer level documentation.
The ordinary Joe's that have to set up SPF records, install and
Ordinary Joes don't have to be fully qualified mechanics to drive
a car, ordinary Joes don't have to be a slaughterer to eat meat.
Ordinary Joes don't have to have a physics degree so they can
combine microchips in such a fashion that they can watch television.
Some ordinary Joes are hobby pilots yet most of them get on an
airliner when conditions get difficult.
So, why does ordinary Joe *have*to* setup SPF records? Or any
other part of their computer related stuff for that matter?
If you like to do it, by all means, do it. Gain the knowledge to
build your own radio transmitter/receiver, become a radio amateur
and operate your own device. Er, I mean, gain the knowledge to
work with DNS, become an amateur computer operator and operate
your own DNS.
If you do not want to, or if you cannot understand it, don't
try to do it anyway but buy it, like you do with your other
stuff in life.
