SRS was a required part of what's needed to make SPF work. You can't
claim that SPF was brilliantly conceived and promoted in the _absence_
of SRS. And I agree that the ball has been dropped. SPF isn't workable.

SPF work great.  The idea that you could implement SRS without also
checking SPF is ridiculous.  The whole reason for the existence
of SRS is that SPF is being checked.  pobox.com is broken.

On the OP question: I suggest setting up an SRS forwarder that actually
checks SPF for a test.  I could set up a forward for you at bmsi.com
if you don't have a server handy.
