The results of the SPF check (as defined by the official SPF spec)
To quote from doc/draft-mengwong-spf-00.txt Section 3:
3. SPF Record Evaluation
An SPF client evaluates an SPF record and produces one of seven results:
None: The domain does not publish SPF data.
Neutral (?): The SPF client MUST proceed as if a domain did not publish SPF data. This result occurs if the domain explicitly specifies a "?" value, or if processing "falls off the end" of the SPF record.
Pass (+): the message meets the publishing domain's definition of legitimacy. MTAs proceed to apply local policy and MAY accept or reject the message accordingly.
Fail (-): the message does not meet a domain's definition of legitimacy. MTAs MAY reject the message using a permanent failure reply code. (Code 550 is RECOMMENDED. See RFC2821 section 7.1.)
Softfail (~): the message does not meet a domain's strict definition of legitimacy, but the domain cannot confidently state that the message is a forgery. MTAs SHOULD accept the message but MAY subject it to a higher transaction cost, deeper scrutiny, or an unfavourable score.
There are two error conditions, one temporary and one permanent.
Error: indicates an error during lookup; an MTA MAY reject the message using a transient failure code, such as 450.
Unknown: indicates incomplete processing: an MTA MUST proceed as if a domain did not publish SPF data.
When SPF-aware SMTP receivers accept a message, they SHOULD prepend a Received-SPF header. See section 6.
SPF clients MUST use the algorithm described in this section or its functional equivalent.
If an SPF client encounters a syntax error in an SPF record, it must terminate processing and return a result of "unknown".

The reason that the result was returned
This is what triggered the SPF result. Usually, it is a mechanism in the SPF record that causes the result, but if it was something else, the calling program will often want to take a different action or issue a different message.
