It's down in the "Changes In Feisty" section (Feisty Fawn is the code name for
the next Ubuntu release):

Feisty includes a number of changes to provide SPF (Sender Policy Framework)
checking with Postfix.  SPF is the most deployed e-mail domain forgery
protection technology today and was codified by the IETF in RFC 4408.  See
http://www.openspf.org/ for more information.  Feisty will be the first Linux
distribution to include everything needed to do RFC 4408 compliant SPF
checking.  The Python SPF library has been updated to the latest release
(python-spf 2.0.3).  A companion Postfix policy server (python-policyd-spf)
is also included for a pure Python approach.  There is also a new Perl SPF
library (libmail-spf-perl) with a companion Postfix policy server
(postfix-policyd-spf-perl).

That is great, but I do not think they were the first.  SuSE/OpenSUSE has
had it for a while.  They currently have it available via YaST2 for SUSE
10.0, 10.1, and OpenSUSE 10.2.  It is in the download repo and available
via ftp.  I did get them to update to the latest and greatest.  Thanks to
the Build Service.  To Look it is in Server:Mail.
