e.g. I've talked to people who say that 90% of the SPF records they
see are from spammers.
Why? Because people are using SPF in conjunction with anti-spam
systems like Spamassassin, and giving *positive* scores to email which
passes SPF. The end result is that spammers can *gain* by publishing
SPF records, as their spam is more likely to get through.
That's a very interesting point.
It means that spammers have (partly) changed their behavior and
started to use their own domains for sender addresses.
Does anyone have examples of such domains?
