Hi Scott,

Sorry if I'm being blond, but that didn't answer my question.

I am trying to figure out where to point the finger and I don't understand enough of what you posted for me to understand if this is my problem as the mail admin or the vic mail admin?

I don't have a function to just whitelist the uni, so if people think that tinyspf is not working correctly then I'll just stop using it.

Sorry that my initial question was not very clear.

From http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4408#section-10.1 :

   SPF implementations MUST limit the number of mechanisms and modifiers
   that do DNS lookups to at most 10 per SPF check, including any
   lookups caused by the use of the "include" mechanism or the
   "redirect" modifier.  If this number is exceeded during a check, a
   PermError MUST be returned.  The "include", "a", "mx", "ptr", and
   "exists" mechanisms as well as the "redirect" modifier do count
   against this limit.  The "all", "ip4", and "ip6" mechanisms do not
   require DNS lookups and therefore do not count against this limit.
   The "exp" modifier does not count against this limit because the DNS
   lookup to fetch the explanation string occurs after the SPF record
   has been evaluated.
