.... include:domain-of-first-spf-record-to-include include:domain-of-second-spf-record-to-include ....
.... == the rest of your spf record
obvious question is why would you want to ever include both??
the newer should be the only one needed
as both the newer and the older should have exactly the same IP's listed within it
if the external mailing service understands and uses SPF correctly
{and if they don't including any SPF record they provide is a dumb move}
remember SPF equates to a list of IP's that they use to send email, so why would the old and new list differ, or rather why would the newer name for the list contain any fewer IP's than the older name
