i think part of the success i experience using SPF as a means to create
whitelists is in the fact that i maintain the list of domains i fancy
whitelisting. unfortunately, it would be trivial for someone to take
advantage of an spf-based automatic whitelist to slip right on thru
Yeah, this is useful for manually maintaining a list of domains for which you
want to check spf records and update the whitelist. I.e. domains such as
hotmail.com and google.com which fulfill the following requirements:
a) use round-robin sending mailservers
b) are somehwat trusted

If this is the case, then you have
Auto-whitelisting based on input from the spammer is bad. You may as
well save yourself the trouble and not use spamd.
Indeed. it is utterly mentally retarded. most spam is bogusly sent from real
envelope senders. Smart spammers just randomize their recipient lists
and use them as the
