well, and how becomes SPF part of the game in case of a throw-away

spammer add a TXT record to a throw-away domain?

Ummm.... are you really that unclear on the concept?  I'll explain it
carefully:

Spammers know that (some) filters filter less aggressively than normal
on an SPF "pass".  So they register a throwaway domain and use that
in the envelope sender.  They publish a TXT record for that domain to
ensure they get an SPF pass.

There.  That wasn't so hard, was it?

and how does that care a SA setup?

it's that filters fault to score SPF pass lower instead only penalty SPF fail since *most* spam making it through the filters before SA anyways has SPF_PASS and comes from gmail, hotmail and other freemail providers
