SYNOPSIS
           use Mail::SPF;

           my $spf_server  = Mail::SPF::Server->new();

           my $request     = Mail::SPF::Request->new(
               versions        => [1, 2],              # optional
               scope           => 'mfrom',             # or 'helo', 'pra'
               identity        => 'fred@example.com',
               ip_address      => '192.168.0.1',
               helo_identity   => 'mta.example.com'    # optional,
                                                       #   for %{h} macro expansion

           my $result      = $spf_server->process($request);

           print("$result\n");
           my $result_code     = $result->code;        # 'pass', 'fail', etc.
           my $local_exp       = $result->local_explanation;
           my $authority_exp   = $result->authority_explanation

DESCRIPTION
       Mail::SPF is an object-oriented implementation of Sender Policy
       Framework (SPF).  See <http://www.openspf.org> for more information
       about SPF.

       This class collection aims to fully conform to the SPF specification
       (RFC 4408) so as to serve both as a production quality SPF
       implementation and as a reference for other developers of SPF
       implementations.
