I got the info from a friend that is a pharmacist - you are free to use
it, it's not copyrighted.

I'm probably going to be a lone dissenter here, but frankly, I don't
think it is beneficial at all. I think it does nothing, it may have
been designed to do something, but in practice it fails. I deal with
30-40 million mail transactions a day, not a huge site, but an ok test
bed for this. It gets more than it's fair share of backscatter and spam
(probably 90% of that traffic is one or the other). I haven't seen any
decrease at all since implementing spf a few months ago on one a couple
of the main domains, nothing changed for them. I see no less
backscatter, no less spam, no less forged mail, no less of anything.
I'm sure many will pop in with stories of how it saved their setup, but
I haven't seen it. I'm not planning on implementing it on more of our
domains, I find it to be a cluttering of the headers for no benefit.

We're still having problems sending to Tiscali and Hotmail - 2 full
days now since being removed from the blacklists.

I've checked both of those links above as I was already using them to
check - and we're not on any of them.


Any ideas why it's just Hotmail and Tiscali???
