SenderID is dead. The only group that every liked it was Microsoft / Hotmail, and even they don't publish it. Any records you see are mostly just fossil relics of an earlier era.

And one SenderID/SPF issue that you *will* run into is that...

The Sender ID spec tells you that if you see a v=spf1 record, you should
treat it as though it were spf2.0/mfrom,pra when, in fact, if *should*
be treated as though it were spf2.0/mfrom.  any assumption of "pra" is
not necessarily a valid read of the sending domains wishes.

that is why we use spf2.0/pra records for our clients (in addition to
v=spf1 records). So I think as long as MS abuses v=spf1 records,
SenderID lives....
