As long as they are different then only the right one is used.
Did you send a message to the test address and get a rejection result?

I think you have a typo in your Sender ID record though... I
don't think "v=spf2.0/mfrom" should have the "v=" in it. But that
shouldn't affect SPF lookups.

Steve,
Thank you for the heads-up on my syntax error with Sender ID!

I didn't send the test message myself, I used the tool at:
http://www.openspf.org/Why?show-form=1&identity=moongate1.com&ip-address=71.
163.47.79&.submit=Submit. I have corrected my syntax error on the Sender ID
records. I'll wait for the TTL (1 hour) to expire and retest to see if that
had some strange impact.

Thank you,
David

The form assumes you are entering the IP address of a mail
server that sent a message that was rejected, and you want to find out
why. Use the e-mail address at http://www.openspf.org/Tools to test.
