There are 2 parts in SPF: 
- Create the record 
- Check the record and filter

I was stating that the second part is ok if you know that no forwarded email 
streams reach your server (or if you have identified them and switched of the 
check there). The first part, creating the record, is a matter of opinion (and 
there are some strong ones around...).

No, a sender with an SPF -all record needs to be certain that none of their 
users ever send mail to an address which forwards elsewhere. Of course it's 
unreasonable to expect non-technical senders to know the implementation details 
of recipient addresses...

Very rough or high. Rain or showers. Good, occasionally poor.
