If I don't know the host name portion for the TXT record of domain
foobar.com, would I be able to use nslookup or some other tool to find
it?
Truth is, I don't know if I actually _need_ to know if foobar.com is
using SPF , I'm working on a bugger of an SMTP issue and need to find
out all I can about foobar.com

Any use?

h'mm .. it appears to be just what I want, except ... it doesn't work.
It doesn't return anything for a domain that I know has an SPF record
( c-span.org).

I don't think there is an SPF record for c-span.org
http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/safe...nderid/wizard/
No SPF record has been found for the domain c-span.org. However, MX and/or A
records currently exist for this domain.

An SPF record is a TXT type of record created under a zone. To use nslookup
to query a TXT record, you would use the following commands:
c:\nslookup
> set q=txt
> c-span.org
If the SOA information returns, then there is no SPF record. Try it with
other domains of your choice, such as microsoft.com, to see what an SPF
would look like in an nslookup return.
