Could you please provide me with the SPF error, so that I can fix it? Or
is the issue on your side?

If you send to zigo at debian.org, it works because I've white-listed the
Debian mail server, but I would still like to know if my other email has
SPF issues... :)

That'd be really great to have this change uploaded as well. Also since
we know already the type of kernel we'll have for Debian Wheezy (it's
going to be Linux 3.2, currently in the archive), I don't think we'll
have much surprise.
