[spf-discuss] Re: other modifiers

scan policy again for "interesting" options / modifiers,
and even in the worst ten-nested-include case this scan
finds all relevant info in the cache.

Well, or maybe it's not that simple:

x1.test "v=spf1 modix=1 -include:x2.test redirect=x3.test"
x2.test "v=spf1 modix=2 +ip4:0.0.0.0/1 -all"
x3.test "v=spf1 modix=3 +ip4:128.0.0.0/2 -all"

Result FAIL.  Precisely what is the value of modifier modix
in the "scan after check_host()" step ?  Is it modix=1, or
modix=2, or modix=3 ?

Are modifiers "hidden" behind include: for the purpose of a
post check_host() scan ?  That would eliminate modix=2, but
what about modix=1 vs. modix=3 ?

Maybe we don't need a new SPF version, but have to explain
the messy modifiers in all existing SPF versions.  Bye, Frank
