--- Comment #10 from Ivo Truxa <[email protected]> ---
I released another version (v1.0.7), which removes the (partial) IP from the
EMAIL_IP identificator when SPF check returns 'pass'. When there is an SPF
pass, we assume that the domain owner maintains the responsibility over all IP
addresses he authorizes with the SPF record, and hence we keep the same
identity for all of them.

Because there may be domain owners who declare the +all policy in their SPF,
resulting in a pass for anyone (including forgers), I preferred doing the
feature optional, so that the administrators can decide for themselves whether
they want to use the feature or not. The same IP ignoring happens (since the
beginning) also with the DKIM signatures, but was not made optional there.

The advantage is less records in the database, less scattering and higher
counts per email (catching all sender's messages under the same record,
regardless from where he sends, as long as it is from an authorized address).
