SPF DNS Record

Noticed a drought in posts to the mail list today after enabling Sender
Policy Framework on my mail server.  Research revealed that
lists.sourceforge.net posts the following SPF record:

lists.sourceforge.net   text = "v=spf1 mx -all"

With the two MX defined as:

mail.sourceforge.net                    internet address = 66.35.250.206
externalmx-1.sourceforge.net            internet address = 12.152.184.25

Yet, the list traffic is actually originating from:

sc8-sf-sshgate.sourceforge.net  66.35.250.220

Which obviously returns an SPF "fail" result to any mail servers so
configured.

Could the list owner please forward this info to Sourceforge folks who can
make the necessary adjustments to their DNS SPF record?  Thanks!

Frank
