One major hole of SPF or any similar plan though, is that open relays are still going to work as spam conduits - since SPF is an opt in system, any open relay which didnt have an SPF entry could still relay spam, or if they did have an SPF entry, but were accidentally an open relay, spammers would just have to make sure that they used return addresses which belonged to the domain hosted by the open relay in question.
Very true Simon. But there is no silver bullet for spam. Just lots of bronze ones. Let's fire them instead. jamie
