After reading this article on SPF I am wondering about the merits of SPF:

Is SPF going to be exploited to the point where is is of little value?

That is good news -- that means that you can catch 16% of spammers with a blacklist of domain names of spammers that use SPF. :) Now, someone just needs to start working on that list.


Also is anyone using the WHITELIST HABEAS test? Are there any pros or cons to activating this test?

Right now, it isn't of much benefit, since spammers started using it a while ago, and couldn't get caught. Even Habeas reps have admitted that the Habeas headers aren't as useful as had originally been hoped.
