  In a normal mail client, the HELO command uses the internet name of the computer sending the mail, so that someone might use their computer 1-2-3-dyn.bigisp.com to send mail through bigisp.com's mail relay, which has an SPF record indicating that that's allowed.
  
- ==== Pass ====
+ ==== Neutral ====
  
- A "Pass" result means that the client is authorized to inject mail with the given identity. The domain can now, in the sense of reputation, be considered responsible for sending the message. Further policy checks can now proceed with confidence in the legitimate use of the identity.
+ The domain owner has explicitly stated that he cannot or does not want to assert whether or not the IP address is authorized. A "Neutral" result MUST be treated exactly like the "None" result; the distinction exists only for informational purposes. Treating "Neutral" more harshly than "None" would discourage domain owners from testing the use of SPF records (see Section 9.1).
