So, you're saying that if I put this in my DNS: foo IN TXT "foobar" IN TXT "foobar" IN TXT "foobar" That looking up TXT records for "foo" could return anywhere from 1 to 3 records? Nevertheless, the SPF spec says that when there are multiple TXT records beginning with "v=spf1", then the correct result is PermError. -- Stuart D.
