I believe you are wrong. We can have SPF fully deployed by September
22.
There is no way that SPF will be fully deployed this year or even this
decade. If we are really lucky, we might reach 25% of all domains by
the end of the year and 99.9% of all domains by the end of the decade.
Fortunately, we don't need things to be fully deployed, we need enough
to reach critical mass (which I think we might have reached already).
I see "full deployment" as the point where SPF is fully implemented and is
working. For instance, enough people have published SPF records that most
email being sent around can be authorized, and unauthorized email can be
safely rejected.
I think when most spammers publish SPF records, we will have won. That was
the original intent anyway: Get the spammers to show themselves and get a
way to hold them accountable.
