That is a solved problem for senders and receivers participating
in SPF, a PASS means "yes, please inform me about delivery issues
as specified in 2821bis".

A FAIL means "please reject at your border, a (wannabe) originator
as indicated in the reverse-path is likely not the real originator,
and where that is not the case it is a problem to be solved by the
hop before you (forwarder or simply an erroneous policy), not your
problem".

No guessing involved for PASS and FAIL.
