Intermittent incorrect SPF results

Bug #92569 reported by Scott Kitterman on 2007-03-15

Affects		Status	Importance	Assigned to	Milestone
	libspf2 (Ubuntu)	Fix Released	Undecided	Unassigned

Bug Description

Libspf2 uses stricter processing limits for MX and PTR records than identified in RFC 4408. As a result, libspf2 will sometimes return results inconsistent with the results SPF record publishers would expect based on RFC 4408.

Before uploading, please review (extra carefully) the way I did this with dpatch as my experience level with dpatch is very low.
