The words "best solution" should NEVER be used in the same sentence as "sender verification," unless "not" separates them. It is obnoxious and places the burden of your lack of effort or knowledge onto the sender.
My favorite "You don't want to do that" example goes like this; Step 1: Imagine everybody did sender challenge/response. Step 2: Now imagine that a spammer has joe-jobbed your address into the From: line of 5 million spams. Still think it's a good idea? :)
