What does that prove?

Depending upon your local policies:
'~all' merits a possibility for a reject. '-all' merits a reject.

I don't use SPF here.

I assume the OP was looking for a way to reject HELO/EHLO from hosts
making connections falsifying domains on the OP's server.

There has already been posts on ways to reject such things. However,
the OP has yet to provide logs demonstrating the issue at hand.
