Hang on -
If someone wants to use a record for something - we can't stop them. In
extremis - if someone decided to reject mail coming from a sender with an
spf record which contained the letter q - we could not do anything about it.
If M$ want to use an spf record for an authenciation system it wasn't
designed for - that's their perogative. We cannot stop them.
What we *can* do is -
1. Forget M$ - they are being far too successfull at distracting us.
2. Make spfv=1 better understood and clear up the specification.
3. Publicise the fact that spfv=1 works well for onehop mails, which
account for a huge proportion of e-mail transmissions.
4. Publicly rebuff any attempts to use spfv=1 records for any other
purpose other than those it was designed for.
We need as many people as possible to publish spfv=1 records.
Slainte,
JohnP.

Thirded.
I can defnitively determine the effect publishing SPFv1 records will have
on my domains when used in
the SPF context. I cannot be certain my domains emails would not be
negatively affected by the
published SPF being used against PRA. Indeed, there are specific cases
where I can be certain it
will cause problems and for at least some domains would be forced to
unpublish.

using existing records, I will probably stop publishing a

Seconded. SenderID is incompatible with v=spf1. Bye, Frank
