AOL's SPF DNS record:
v=spf1 ip4:152.163.225.0/24 ip4:205.188.139.0/24 ip4:205.188.144.0/24
ip4:205.188.156.0/23 ip4:205.188.159.0/24 ip4:64.12.136.0/23
ip4:64.12.138.0/24 ptr:mx.aol.com ?all
And now as XML:
<spf v="1" ip4="152.163.225.0/24 205.188.139.0/24 205.188.144.0/24
205.188.156.0/23 205.188.159.0/24 64.12.136.0/23 64.12.138.0/24"
ptr="mx.aol.com" all="?" />
Smaller than the SPF record, pushlishes the same data, just as readable
by a human, parseable with a little bit of C AND !! *KEY POINT HERE* !!
loadable by an XML parser if you so want.
Bumper sticker is in the post and I can't wait to see your video
covering the Britney song...
I'm not suggesting that SPF is stored as XML, but please don't insult me
publicly again and not expect me to defend myself.
