Scott I remember an issue with SPF that does not fall into pass or fail but
if they use the ? in the spf record the email may be a maby.

Has this been resoved? Or am I understanding it improperly?

I do not want to negative weight a maby if it falls into the pass category.
I know I do not have to negative weight and can use the fail only.
