This is a totally ridiculous statement. I don't run mail for any sort of
job. I get paid by 2 people to do it, and I don't get paid enough by them
to stop their spam. In my day job, I'm a programmer, not a mailadmin. SPF
hasn't addressed null-senders, and doesn't address forwarding (both of
which I use heavily. It is therefore, currently, a deficient solution. It
is also an I-D, and I-Ds should not be implemented on a wide scale before
they hit the standards track, and start actually being published.

(actually, is it even that far, or was it just on their webpage, looking
like an I-D?)
