most of the users into their servers... ignorance *IS* bliss.
But you're right on the SPF part...

I suspect end users will notice that their mail is getting rejected. And
that will lead to much pain for the technical types who have to explain
why it isn't going through and try to fix it. And your local users will
whine to you that you are blocking their email from Aunt Sally.
These probablity of these events happening increase the faster M$ and
others push to implement such systems. It will be exacerbated by a lack
of publicity, such as M$'s apparent deadline of October 1.
These steps need to be taken, but it needs to be a ratified standard and
well publicized.
