I think you just refuse to understand.
The domain owner is setting the policy. Your domain will not allow you to
do what you want to do. It is not your option. Who owns the domain? Who
"authorized" you? The only way to "authorize" you is to fix the spf
records. Only the domain owner can do that. And the domain owner is
smart
enough to NOT allow you to do that. So, they did good.
And yes, if you borrow a friend's cell phone, you can't forge you own
phone
number. You must make the call using his number. Unless you use a smart
card, but that was not your point.
Actually, you can. There are some interesting commercial services now that
will forge CallerID for you on a call-by-call basis. I haven't investigated
the details, but it's just a digital signal sent between the first few rings
of the telephone.
The raido talk shows are having a blast with this.
