spamassassin-3.0.4-2.fc4's
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6/Mail/SpamAssassin/Plugin/SPF.pm modified to
log more debug info on SPF query failures

I think these SPF lookup failures are occuring when the DNS lookups timeout / 
fail, possibly due to intermittent loss of network connectivity.

Here's an SPF.pm that will log more info when these failures occur that should
give us a better idea of their cause. 

Please copy the attached SPF.pm to
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6/Mail/SpamAssassin/Plugin/SPF.pm ,
restart spamd, and then grep for the log messages it might output:
  # egrep '(SPF: failed query:)|(SPF: DNS connectivity)' /var/log/messages
and append such messages to this bug report if found - thanks!
