pch.net publishes a SPF record:

Besides going from soft-fail (~all) to fail (-all), they are already
giving you the tools you need to validate a MAIL FROM: claim.
Thats all very well and good, but advising people who do not validate with
spf to whitelist by domain name is an over-simplification.
So call it additional clue-boundary to entry and be done with this silly
thread.
Besides, the site doesn't specify how to filter/whitelist...just to make
sure you can accept mail from pch.net. A simple person might take that to
mean "I better allow any @pch.net from address" but that's not what the
site says.
