SPF2.0 advice

Hello, I have been looking on the web to see how I can make my email authentication more "Microsoft" friendly (because this is what my customer want). I have found this statement on the web: Sender ID uses the SPF Record or a SPF2.0 Record. If you have an SPF Record and your email software Purported Responsible Address (PRA) is derives from RFC 5322 and the MAIL FROM (Reverse-Path) derives from RFC 5321, then you don't need an SPF2.0 record. If your email software only implements one of the RFCs then you'll need to specify which one by adding a TXT record to you DNS.
So my question is does CPanel (WHM 54.0) support RFC 5322 / RFC 5321 in which case I do not need SPF2.0?

  Hello :) cPanel comes with Exim, which is compliant with RFC 5322 and RFC 5321. You should not have to implement an additional SPF entry. Thank you.
