Yes, your SPF is valid, but the domain of the envelope sender
(autoharp.org) which is what the SPF deals with does not 'align with'
(DMARC standard words) the domain of the From: (yahoo.com). Thus your
SPF says your server is allowed to send mail with envelope from
autoharp.org, not yahoo.com, so it doesn't count for DMARC validation of
mail From: yahoo.com.
