there will be strong pressure on the few domains with
expensive SPF records, and not so much blame on SPF.

Sure, do you know any worse cases than spf.pobox.com ?  Radu
found some, at least two fixed their policies after he asked.


Actually, I asked one after you pointed out the problem with my record because I included them. I do think the fact that I was able to point them to an ID on the IETF web site and explain how the policy was problematic in terms of that draft was a significant factor in their responsiveness.

I think we both asked megapathdsl to fix their record at about the same time. I was in contact with Bill Pratt, who appeared very willing to correct the flaw.

Perhaps it helped that he received the same kind of suggestion at about the same time, but I have the gut feeling that he would have accomodated even one single request, if it was well documented.

Radu.
