[spf-discuss] Empty MX name

2005-12-28 23:08:41
mail.globalinkllc.com has no SPF record.  However, their weird MX could
happen to a domain that does.  

$ host -t mx mail.globalinkllc.com
mail.globalinkllc.com is an alias for redirect.mail.premiumservices.yahoo.com.
redirect.mail.premiumservices.yahoo.com is an alias for 
ymb1.mail.vip.sc5.yahoo.com.
ymb1.mail.vip.sc5.yahoo.com mail is handled by 0 .

Currently, pyspf gets temperror for an MX mechanism and an MX record with
an empty name like the above.

What should the correct result be?  Should the mechanism simply fail
to match?  Or permerror?
