Hmmm... looking at AOL's SPF record, I see in addition to several ip4
records a ptr record and a terminal '?all', so there's no hard fail
mechanism.

Be that as it may, there's nothing saying that we have to actually
reject SPF failures, as long as we can get SPF passes to modify
SpamAssassin's behavior.

If the domain is not a large one, then 'BOFHSPF...=off' rules in an
esmtpaccess rules file will overcome that glitch.
