I continue to find false hits (saved by other rules, so not false positives as
such) from genuine microsoft mail, and also for example, a genuine paypal
notification from a nameless msn user:

From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]>
Sender: [email protected]

This paypal FP would not have hit the proposed SPF version of the rule, since
paypal has correct SPF records. 

Something needs to be done. At the very least, the proposed SPF version should
be adopted with a score somewhat lower than the current 3.7 IMO.

On the other hand, the only recent actual spam hit I've seen recently that hit
the rule would not have hit the proposed SPF version of the rule either, as it
was sent via a bulk mail service that has correct SPF records.

Are others still seeing many spam hits for this rule? If not, perhaps it should
be dropped altogether?
