*Your* SPF records obviously aren't a problem with respect to mail resent from
*your* host. But your SPF records will cause problems if mail is forwarded by
some other host, and others' SPF records will cause problems if mail is
forwarded by your host, *to hosts that enforce SPF*. Any administrator that
chooses to reject mail based on SPF checks should enable users to specify
exceptions for mail they have themselves set up forwarding of (not needed if
the forwarder rewrites return addresses). That should cover all legitimate
cases.
