Obvious SPF was in use. There were plenty of people providing SPF
stats, Wayne including myself talked about SPF stats quite often.

I've seen stats on SPF _publication_ which currently set the number of
domains publishing SPF at just over two hundred thousand¹ out of a total
of 65 million² domains -- about 0.3%.

Wayne promised to publish new stats with 1 million domains...

I sent the list of 650k domains with SPF records to the Adoption Roll
at least a month or two ago.  James confirmed that there would be
around 900k domains total.


In general to put this issue to rest, I think it would probably be good 
if Wayne or somebody else begins to collect list of domains that published 
spf on monthly or basis (or once/3-month) and publish such data on website
with clear links to summary for each month with list of domains that the
data is based on also available for download to registered users (not that 
bad people don't registere to get the list, but it maybe enough to stop
majority of such of such abuse).

I thought that was what the adoption roll was doing.

I'm afraid I don't have the time to collect these stats right now.  If
someone would like to re-start the adoption roll, I can probably help
some.
