fact that's not true, is not acceptable.
Anyone in an IS department publishing '-all' records for their company
should be fired for incompetence. Like I said, it's fine for toy domains
-- you have the right to break your own mail, and even to wear your
underpants on your head if you so desire. It's different in the real
world.

Without -all Joe in sales will have those same people dropping his mail
because of a softfail or neutral result without even the courtesy of
a bounce because they are too casual with their own business
communications.

Huh? Can you elaborate on the way in which SPF will cause these softfail/neutral results to drop mail?
