I don't see any connection with anti-SPF stances. Whether you love or
despise SPF, the facts (RFC 6686, sections 5 and 6) are that the SPF
record (type 99) is not used at all and that the TXT record is now the
only one recommended (if you do SPF, which probably means you did not

And so, to speed adoption of the SPF RR type, ISC is prompting admins to go 
back and look at their settings so that they can migrate. If a critical mass of 
admins publish SPF RR types, then the results of the experiment documented in 
rfc 6686 would be vastly different if repeated.  

SPF RR types are already standards track - see RFC 6652. An informational rfc 
warning that the standard is not being adopted should be seen as a call to fix 
the admins, not discard the standard.

Which was a total mis-reporting of facts at the time.  The current
libraries DO lookup SPF records and fall back to TXT records.  New
implementations use SPF records.

This was just a WG that was just plain impatient drawing wrong
conclusions by doing surveys.  Then deciding that the was a problem
when there wasn't one at all.  That over reacted and in doing so
created even more long term problems that can't correct themselves
over time.  Then didn't want to hear that they were impatient and
have overreacted.

I'm afraid the same applies even in these cases.
How can you differ between vanity forwarder and spam/phish with fake from
address?


Rewrite the sender's address. You have more choices, SRS is one of them.


This would help in other ways too - at my former employer we've had to deal
with broken forwardings, therefore undeliverable mail and undeliverable
bounces.  Rewriting sender and properly detecting undeliverable garbage
helps there too.


Who should the sender be changed to?  AFAIK, it has never been standard
practice to rewrite the sender when simply forwarding to an alias, which
is what this is.


Because they did not care. Long time ago even open relays were not an issue
until people started abusing them.


...OK this is off-topic here. However this was already discussed and the
conclusion was that the SPF record is NOT dead. We just need enough time to
deal with these issues.

Ok, but in this case you are trusting alum.mit.edu as a forwarder.  And it
is specific to you as the recipient, not all of the people in the world
getting your mail.  So add them to trusted-hosts and apply spf before the
last trusted...  Problem solved.  Or add enough whitelist points to
counteract SPF problems when a /^Received.{5,40}\balum.mit.edu/ header is
found in your mail.  In either case, you have to either trust your forwarder
to evaluate SPF for you and trust the SPF evaluation headers they insert, or
consider that forwarder part of your mail infrastructure and instruct your
spf evaluator to ignore those headers.

But again, that's your choice for outsourcing part of your mail solution to
another entity.

on a forwarded message:
