spfquery *should* return (as its exit code) the SPF_RESULT_ code from libspf2, 
and that hasn't changed since 1.2.5 at least, and neither has the -ip 
parameter. Which version was it you used "before"?

Bug#516978: spfquery: return codes and arguments changed without notice

[Corin Langosch]

Package: spfquery
Version: 1.2.9-1
Severity: normal

After upgrading spfquery a lot of mails got refused by our mailserver. 
It turned out spfquery changed a lot of their return codes (for 
example before success was 1, now it is 2; temp dns-failure was 5, 
now it is 6). Also some arguments seem to have changed, for example 
"ipv4" is now only named "ip". I couldn't find these very important changes 
documented anywhere. Please correct me if I'm wrong, otherwise please 
take care to clearly document such important changes in the future. 
Thank's a lot!  :)
