About SPF, and Sender ID and expecially then the future rfc common to = spf and sender id will be approved (soon) I think that major mail server developpers will quickly integrate these features in they products.
So I think it will be a good think to see next xmail version include = such features internaly (with options in server.tab to = enable/disable/configure parameters) without need to use external filters (performances issues, = ....) (like dbls and rdns that are in xmail not in external filters ...)
