No. Read the FAQ at the supplied URL.

I'm basically buzzword compliant on spf, but it appears that pair.com does
not provide a proper reverse dns for the IP addresses it is supplying to
the receiving mail server. As I understand spf, it is partially a
mechanism for specifying what the valid answers to the reverse dns query
should be.

I recommend you discuss this with pair.
