Subject: RE: [spf-discuss] Some thoughts about spam and SPF

Thanks but I wrote "probability" not "probably".

I mean an actual number between 0 and 1.

The owner of the domain, may have the best information about what
this number should be.

It would be much easier for anti-spam to combine that probability
with other factors if the probability were estimated by the owner
of the domain, since each domain will be different depending on
several factors, including demographics, type of business, rate
of SMTP AUTH adoption, etc...

Please consider this seriously.  I think this will have a very
big effect on the rate of SPF adoption!

Shelby,

Search the archives for the word "softpass".  I suspect that may be
instructive as to the response this proposal will get.
