+1 to Martin this week.

I've got folk getting IRD messages being bounced.

Personally the only thing I really find of use in my mail stack is grey listing, for stopping spam.� I've just about stripped the rest out and just let people deal with the noise as they see fit.

LIke others here, I don't find SFP useful and more often than not I find it causes people a headake as no one really understands it properly (my self included) and are often very unwilling to even engage to attempt to fix it.

Even tracking down the mail admin for a company can be time consuming to the point of pointlessness.

I am still of the opinion that SPF is broken but seem to be fairly alone holding that opinion.

Well I somewhat share your opinion.

I don't think that SPF per-se is broken, but typical implementations definitely are broken.

I do think that applying SPF to inbound relays is definitely broken. A service provider should allow customers�to nominate their own inbound relays, and customer service should not be spouting obvious nonsense such as "the sender should fix their SPF".
