The following errata report has been submitted for RFC7208,
"Sender Policy Framework (SPF) for Authorizing Use of Domains in Email, Version 1".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid6433

--------------------------------------
Type: Editorial
Reported by: Kaspar Etter <me@kasparetter.com>

Section: 3

Original Text
-------------
   Each SPF record is placed in the DNS tree at the owner name it
   pertains to, not in a subdomain under the owner name.  This is
   similar to how SRV records [RFC2782] are done.

Corrected Text
--------------
   Each SPF record is placed in the DNS tree at the owner name it
   pertains to, not in a subdomain under the owner name.  This is
   different from how SRV records [RFC2782] are done.

Notes
-----
SRV records are placed at specific subdomains, which is not the case for SPF records. (I've chosen Editorial instead of Technical because the meaning of this paragraph should be clear from the context and thus this feels more like a typo.)

Instructions:
-------------
This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please
use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or
rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party  
can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary.
