i've fed it a piece of false-negative spam which i know (from the email header checker at spftools.infinitepenguins.net) should definitely give a softfail, and yet the SA headers make no reference to this test at all.
i'm putting some of the output of spamd -D below; there an awful lot, but i can send the whole lot if someone's willing to plough through it!
any light anyone can shed on what's going on - are all DNS-related tests really being skipped, and if so, why? - will be gratefully received.
