I got word from an authoritative source within Google that they generally
do NOT reject on SPF Fail. They reject for a few other reasons, such as
the SMTP sender being a dynamically allocated IP address (which seems to
be what Frank observed), but not for SPF Fail. SPF Fail contributes as a
factor to their spam decision, though.
Frank, can you please update your "Google" page on the SPF website? Right
now it suggests that "Apparently Gmail [was rejecting] SPF FAIL after
DATA", but I don't think that was ever true. Then I think we can rename
the page to "Google SPF implementation" or "Google and SPF" or something.
Where on the website do you want to link it from?
