Content filtering solutions are not acceptable for exactly this reason.
In fact, SPF is good because we don't even have to bear the bandwidth of DATA.
I'm not sure this computes for me at least. SPF is an authentication
method, it says the mail is coming from a source approved by the domain
owner. For those that are saying that they will limit the IP addresses
then you might want to reject immediately. For a connection where you do
not get this limitation then you'll still have to process the mail
somehow.
SPF says nothing about the content of the message. You may get spam that
passes; you may get good mail that SPF says is a forged source.
It it your intent to simply reject the mail based on SPF?
