Subject: [exim-dev] [PATCH] fix deprecated SPF-Received header

Hi,

A pair of parts in the source / docs refer to SPF-Received header, but this
header is no longer in use since RFC 4408 superceds it in favour of
Received-SPF.

I assume SPF-Received was used in libspf2 in the pre-RFC stage, but this is
no longer the case (I checked with current code).

See attached patch.
