Does any one know of any decent resources that explain the syntax for DNS records for SPF that are reasonably clear and easy to follow. The RFC is just cluttered and horrible to read. It lacks sufficient examples and really isn't a lot of help.

SPF is Sender Policy Framework and is used for email authentication through DNS and other great and wonderful things...

I'm asking because more email server administrators are starting to use the bloody thing and rejecting email from domains that do not use SPF entries in their DNS records.

Yeah - I know - another detail to deal with - fun... You know that I'd like Satan to do to those admins...  Angry
