postfix-policyd-spf-python - spoof protection - spf checks FAIL but no action taken - why?

I've installed postfix-policyd-spf-python and configured the postfix integration according to the docs.

This is my policyd-spf.conf config file:

debugLevel = 1 
TestOnly = 0


HELO_reject = SPF_Not_Pass
Mail_From_reject = Fail

PermError_reject = False
TempError_Defer = False

skip_addresses = 127.0.0.0/8,::ffff:127.0.0.0/104,::1

Incoming emails from foreign mail servers get checked and flagged correctly. But when I check for spoof protection, somehow the emails go through:

$ telnet mail.example.com 25

Connected to mail.example.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mail.example.com ESMTP Postfix
helo asd.somedomain.com
250 mail.example.com
mail from: me@example.com
250 2.1.0 Ok

rcpt to: test@example.com
250 2.1.5 Ok
data
354 End data with .

to: "test" 
subject: test

thanks!

250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as 8C9EC1260E1

In my view, this email should NOT be delivered.

Here's the debugging output from postfix-policyd-spf-python:

policyd-spf[34414]: Action: None: Text: None Reject action: 550 5.7.23

As we can see from the log files, the SPF check does return:

spfcheck: pyspf result: "['Fail', 'SPF fail - not authorized', 'mailfrom']"

however, the last line reads:

Action: None: Text: None Reject action: 550 5.7.23

Why is that? Why is the Action: None? In my view, the email should be rejected and not accepted by the server. What am I doing wrong?
