Power In BIND 9.3 DNS trying to get past the 256 char limit in SPF TXT records
One way I was told to do was incase strings in quotes.
But I was given this option if I can get it to work.
Will this work for splitting up SPF records?
I am try to make bx.example.com reference spf.eu.***, spfa.eu.***, spfb.eu.***, and spfc.eu.***.

spf.eu.example.com 3600 IN TXT "v=spf1 include:spfa.eu.example.com include:spfb.eu.example.com include:spfc.eu.example.com -all"
spfa.eu.example.com 3600 IN TXT "v=spf1 ip4:195.33.111.96/28 a:smtp.example.com -all"
spfb.eu.example.com 3600 IN TXT "v=spf1 a:mail.example.de a:igngate.example.de a:inetgate.example.de -all"
spfc.eu.example.com 3600 IN TXT "v=spf1 aImagerodmail4a.example.com aImagerodmail4b.example.com include:spf.example.com ip4:170.224.103.111 ip4:170.2
24.103.111 -all"

bx.example.com 3600 IN TXT "v=spf1 include:spf.eu.example.com -all"

I am trying to get this to work.
Any suggestions please.

Thanks
T

mail::spf::mech::mx

Mail::SPF::Mech::MX(3)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				    Mail::SPF::Mech::MX(3)

NAME

       Mail::SPF::Mech::MX - SPF record "mx" mechanism class

DESCRIPTION

       An object of class Mail::SPF::Mech::MX represents an SPF record mechanism of type "mx".

   Constructors
       The following constructors are provided:

       new(%options): returns Mail::SPF::Mech::MX
	   Creates a new SPF record "mx" mechanism object.

	   %options is a list of key/value pairs representing any of the following options:

	   qualifier
	   domain_spec
	   ipv4_prefix_length
	   ipv6_prefix_length
	       See "new" in Mail::SPF::Mech.

       new_from_string($text, %options): returns Mail::SPF::Mech::MX; throws Mail::SPF::ENothingToParse, Mail::SPF::EInvalidMech
	   Creates a new SPF record "mx" mechanism object by parsing the string and any options given.

   Class methods
       The following class methods are provided:

       default_qualifier
       default_ipv4_prefix_length
       default_ipv6_prefix_length
       qualifier_pattern
	   See "Class methods" in Mail::SPF::Mech.

       name: returns string
	   Returns 'mx'.

       name_pattern: returns Regexp
	   Returns a regular expression that matches a mechanism name of 'mx'.

   Instance methods
       The following instance methods are provided:

       text
       qualifier
       params
       stringify
       domain
       match_in_domain
	   See "Instance methods" in Mail::SPF::Mech.

       domain_spec: returns Mail::SPF::MacroString
	   Returns the "domain-spec" parameter of the mechanism.

       ipv4_prefix_length: returns integer
	   Returns the IPv4 network prefix length of the mechanism.

       ipv6_prefix_length: returns integer
	   Returns the IPv6 network prefix length of the mechanism.

       match($server, $request): returns boolean
	   Checks whether any MX hosts of the mechanism's target domain name (that is, any of the host addresses of its DNS "MX" records) matches
	   the given request's IP address (see "ip_address" in Mail::SPF::Request), and returns true if it does, or false otherwise.  The
	   mechanism's IP network prefix lengths are respected when matching address records against the request's IP address.	See RFC 4408, 5
	   and 5.4, for the exact algorithm used.
