In this case, an SPF implementation may use the HELO hostname as the SPF domain. However, MSFT is using roaringpenguin.com and deciding that our message is failing SPF and rejecting it. We're in a position to say "Get lost, Microsoft" but a lot of people who need to get mail delivered may opt instead to weaken or remove their SPF records. :( Regards, David.
