This is true, unless you call the local ISP and have them set you up on their 
policies, so your e-mail is allowed through the rest of the SPF-users' mail

Of course, this co-operation may or will not come (easy). It may pay to know a 
few people at the local ISP :).

If all else fails, SSH into your POP server back home and respond to mail that 
way.
