<Julian> 2.5.3. Pass
<Julian> A "Pass" result means that the client is authorized to inject mail
<Julian> with the given identity.
The above is good.
Further policy checks, such as reputation,
<Julian> or black and/or white listing, can now proceed with confidence
<Julian> in the identity.
I do not like the word "confidence" it applies stronger level of trust
that is given by spf test. I'd replace it with very simple
"can now use the identity"
Also note that blacklist is not term that is ever where popular (me and
number of others use "blocklist" and Paul Vixie - creator of the system
does not like either for legal and other reasons and advocates for RBL
"real-time blackhole list"), in fact it might be better to just completely
remove "such as reputation or black and/or white listing"
