Good luck trying to rally support around this one. If the open source community is not going to support it, and none of Microsoft's competitors (Yahoo, AOL, GMail, etc.), then what makes you think that other ISPs and companies are going to rally around SenderID, especially when their are other competing standards that are not so encumbered by patents and licenses as SenderID is?

Hi, Nope, they don't read Apache announcements. They want to make sure that they can send newsletters to their MSN and Hotmail subscribers and want the appropriate records added to their domains. Now, if my clients (and possibly other hosters' clients) demand those TXT records to be added (which they are entitled to), then I give a horse's butt about Apache, Unix and any other political faction. As a provider, I'm must being pragmatic - if there is a significant number of domains that have DNS TXT records with SPF2.0 information, then I sure hope that the leading anti-Spam software (Declude) will "exploit" those TXT records for MY benefit.
