"David MacQuigg" opined:

Simply removing SPF may not be an option.  More likely there would be a
worldwide switch to SenderID [... ,] which avoids all these problems.


SenderID uses the same record syntax and DNS look-up system as SPF. It is, I
suspect, therefore vulnerable to the same kind of DDOS attack, with the same
potential for amplification.
