[PLUG] Anyone tried SMTP+SPF?


-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Related to the virus spam we experienced last week, this month's Linux
Journal has an article[1] on SPF or Sender Policy Framework. It's
purpose is to reduce email address forgery by allowing domain owners
to designate which mail servers are allowed to send mail for that domain.

I know that ESR made mention of it at the MIT Spam Conference in
January, but since the SPF concept is fairly new[2], I'm curious if
any PLUG members have any experience with it.
