Hello from sunny California!

We're working on an SPF implementation for our spam filter and noticed an
ambiguity on the Mechanism Syntax result/explanation.

This statement:
fail - The SPF record does not designate the host to be allowed to send

can easily be interpreted as the absence of an action specified, and
confused with the result "none" (described above it). This is in the
"passive voice" which describes an "inaction", whereas I believe the
record is explicitly stating that "The SPF record has designated the host
as NOT being allowed to send."

If I am incorrect then I would greatly appreciate understanding the errors
of my ways (before releasing our SPF implementation =).

Respectfully submitted,

Monte Hansen
