   Sometimes, and its very very rare, and will never know unless    
   reported, a domain has SPF but some reason our winserver.com site will    
   reject the mail. Rather then pass the buck, I will simply added an    
   WCSAPFILTER.TXT while list ACCEPT IF rule to allow them bypass SPF    
   checking.   
      
   There is a slight bug with the SPF processor in WCSAP for SPF DOMAINS    
   that are using the "exists" macro in their SPF policy.  This is more    
   usage for tracking SPF usage, i.e. like tracking that winserver.com is    
   inquiring about a domain ABC requiring SPF.   I expect to have this    
   mite fix in a small WCSAP update shortly.   
      
   If anyone experienced anything related like this, please confirm if    
   the domain rejected did indeed have an "Exists" macro in their SPF policy.   
      
   Thanks
