SRS solves this problem by rewriting the sender's address allowing
it to
properly represent the client now forwarding the email.
The SPF/SRS proponents have yet to present the method how the
rewritten
sender address can be verified, scalably and securely, against
spoofing
itself, by anyone. Until then, SRS (which is evidently meant as
inherent
SPF component) opens the doors that SPF was meant to shut.
The whole SPF web site is an unscientific rant without rationale,
reasoning or contact address. It, too, replaces objective arguments
and
substantiation by polemy and ad-hominem attacks at people not named.
About scalability arguments, Wietse Venema made some points in the
Postfix-users list. Anyone not responding to those questions should
shut
the fuck up about SPF and SRS in particular.

Perhaps after reading this you will understand what the Qmail list is
suffering from. Matthias appears to be the greatest sufferer, showing
signs of some sort of drug overdose or perhaps just spending too much
time on the back of his father's harley huffing fumes in the back yard,
who knows.
I personally love posts that include references to things, but then no
links or other method of tracking the information down. I'm uncertain
that this level of ignorance can be overcome, thankfully this individual
in particular is merely a follower.
Cheers,
James
