Anyone from Yahoo out there?

My mail platform refused an email from Yahoo today (an account notification sent to an alternate contact address linked to a yahoo.com account) because the IP address doing the SMTP delivery was outside the SPF record (an adjacent subnet) i.e. there's an error in the relevant SPF record; there's many ip4:96.47.26.x addresses in the SPF record, but the inbound connection came from 96.47.25.0/24... so obeying the -all had negative consequences.

As a mere yahoo.com free-tier customer i've no idea how to pass this information to someone with cloo, but I can't be the only one who (nearly) missed an important notification due to an apparent misconfiguration and/or SPF record being incorrect.

Thanks,
Mark.
