I got a few comments on various e-mails.

Absolutely.  I report every spam I receive that comes through as an
SPF pass.

Very good idea - when someone publishes SPF records, it indicates that 
they care. Maybe the SPF documentation should include something about 
who to contact if something is wrong? Normally it would be something 
like postmaster(_at_)domainname or abuse(_at_)domainname, but a reference to 
this might be useful, maybe even the possibility to specify it in the 
SPF record?

This is a *BIG* issue among my "Internet libertarian" friends. They
absolutely do not want their ISP's interfering in any way with their 
home connectivity, and deeply resent any attempts to filter popular 
virus ports, force the use of the ISP's SMTP servers for outgoing
email, etc.

In Denmark, the absolutely biggest internet provider (named "TDC") 
has:
- - Disabled outgoing port 25 on all consumer ADSL connections except to 
their own smtp servers.
- - Made no restrictions on business ADSL connections.

The price difference between those two types of connections is small, 
but the difference is big. For instance, consumer ADSL connections 
are better protected against incoming attacks. This means that the 
average consumer is better protected and the advanced user can do 
whatever he/she wants. You have a choice.
