Ah, ok, I had not seen enough additional value using p0f (I turned it
off, too much cpu usage for a very small point percentage) and the fact
that it really can't figure out the difference between a windows 2000
server and an XP workstation.

So, if there a regex that it uses to know when not to bounce?
(and I still think if DNS admin bothers to publish spf, dkim, or sender
id records we should take the time to not bounce)

MAYBE a VERY HIGH score on HARD SPF, high enough to be above threshold
(and we can increase its priority, and add it to shortcut list also)

Other option is to do SPF hard bounce (5xx and disconnect session) in
the MTA, that way no 'bounce' is generated, but rather the sending MTA
gets the 5xx, zombie or not.)
