I thought it was working as designed? I use easydns.com as my dns provider, and pasted the txt records in their txt field. The SOA serial number auto-increments when changes are made, but the user doesn't have access to what they are (unless you go through some hoops at dnsstuff.com).
The addition I added to /var/qmail/control/spfrules was just includes:easydns.com After all was completed I issued service qmail restart. I believe it IS working correctly. Unless you see a problem that I don't even know is a problem.

Could you paste the txt records and the mx records?
