aspmx.googlemail.com is simply a redirect to _spf.google.com

# dig aspmx.googlemail.com TXT
;; ANSWER SECTION:
aspmx.googlemail.com.   4174    IN      TXT     "v=spf1
redirect=_spf.google.com"


I would think using _spf.google.com directly would be safer, but
shouldnt really matter.

We where once told to use _netblocks.google.com by a google employee
in this forum. It returns the same IP ranges as _spf anyway.
