1)      we publish for all our 1000+ domains spf records with "-all" !!!

It was my understanding that no one should publish "-all" until after SPF is 
officially adopted and the flag day passes. You should be using "~all" 
right now.

2)      nearly 100% is smooth and clear
3)      only some major players like ebay are breaking rfc rules.

but...

ebay is a "must" in our days and if some Mails from ebay will be rejected
with  554 .... our customers will shoot us off to the moon....


Please send an email to ebay and explain the situation. If they aren't 
involved already with SPF, they will be soon when they see a large number 
of people who use SPF. Everyone else who deals with eBay should do the 
same. The internet is a political animal, and the only way to convince 
people to change is through politics.

In the meantime, "~all".

As for your customers, explain to them that eBay is doing the same thing a 
lot of spammers are doing. I think they'll be more understanding.
