[aprssig] ***SPAM*** arrl.net domain e-mail sending failures?

[Lynn W Deffenbaugh (Mr)]

This is slightly off-topic with respect to APRS, but since that's the 
bulk of the e-mail that I send as KJ4ERJ at arrl.net, I thought I'd ask it 
here.

Has anyone recently noticed that e-mail sent from the @arrl.net domain 
to an @gmail.com address bounces?   This seems to have started just this 
week for me.  I've included the bounce text below, and for anyone that 
understands SPF, here's a link to arrl.net's SPF TXT record.

It would seem that we have to send our @arrl.net e-mails out through 
pobox.com in order to pass gmail's enforcement of the SPF.

I don't know if it would fix the gmail issue, but does anyone know who 
to contact at the ARRL to try changing the final -all (fail) to a ~all 
(softfail) or ?all (neutral)?
