I've thought SPF was integrated into the txt record at the DNS level. I had no idea that Imail has features to utilize SPF guess I'll have to search the archives again.
For your domain to publish SPF support, so that others using SPF can know what IPs are allowed to send mail from your domain, all you need is DNS.
For you to block mail that fails SPF, though, you need an anti-spam program (such as Declude JunkMail) that supports SPF.

We don't use the Declude JunkMail.
Yes, but thousands of people here do. It's the most commonly used anti-spam addon for IMail.

SPF is not complex ...
Have you read the SPF RFC? Have you ever written anti-spam software? Have you ever written code to support SPF? If not, you can't say that it is not complex. Macro parsing, for example, is something that SPF requires but is not required in most other aspects of anti-spam.
