Re: RE: SPF Record Publishing Rate

Not being pessimist, but far from it... and being realistic.
yahoo.com would count as one million  (as an example)

I bet there are lot's of domains with txt records not "registered".
anyway, I'm confident about SPF.

I'm going to calculate the number of days it will take to reach 1,000,000
*registered* domains. Note that this assumes a linear adoption rate,
although intuition obviously suggests an exponential one.

1,000,000 = 70,000 + d * 5,000

d = (1,000,000 - 70,000) / 5,000

d = 186

At a constant rate of adoption, we will have 1,000,000 *registered* domains
in 186 days, or about 6 months. So by February, we will have 1,000,000
registered domains.
