what is a SPF (type 99) record and who do I implement?

[Fr34k]

http://www.openspf.org/ is pretty good.
Not only does it build the file for you, but it can test your live record.

Correction.  I found many
sites which discuss what it is, but none that explicitly tell me how to
implement in my hosts file.
 
If the below implementation is
correct, let me know.
 
Thanks again in advance!!

Struggled to find anything explicit on this subject via
google to no avail.  Best Explanation I could find was http://www.enyo.de/fw/software/exim/spf-update.html#6
 
Currently hosts file looks like:
 
 
Mydomain.com      
172800  IN TXT  "v=spf1 mx -all"
Mydomain.com      
172800  IN SPF  "v=spf1 mx -all"
Mydomain.com      
172800  IN MX   10 Mail.Mydomain.com  
Mail.Mydomain.com 
172800  IN A    vvv.xxx.yyy.zzz
 
 
Is this correct?  FYI not using DNSSEC
 
Thanks in advance!
