It was designed to protect against the Joe Job and only if everyone adopts it. Anything beyond this is a stretch. The rest of the complaints in the spf is harmful link are moot as a growing trend is to do away with certain portions of RFC's=20 such as bounces. We have put it in place to monitor the results, and contrary to the=20 article, AOL has not adopted the policy, all they have done is place a DNS text entry indicating anybody using an AOL address is ok with them. We do tag email that has an out and out SPF failure so our content filters can have their way with it. Regards Greg
