Depends on your mailserver, but it's quite unusual for people to reject mail
beacause the sending domain has no spf record.

Your best bet is to consulte whatever documentation comes with your mail
server.

What mailserver are you using btw?

P.S. This is the srs-discuss mailing list, there is also an SPF-Help mailing
list which is a better place to ask this kind of question.
