Depends a bit on whether you're counting inbound-mail-service operators as network operators. As an end user who doesn't have an account at Bank of America, I'd be happy if bankofamerica.com used SPF records so my mail system could discard forged spam from them; that's much different than the kind of forgery prevention I want for my actual bank. (And obviously SPF isn't going to stop mail from bank0vamer1ca.cm etc., but it can cut down some of the noise and leave the rest for Spamassassin.) -- ---- Thanks; Bill Note that this isn't my regular email account - It's still experimental so far. And Google probably logs and indexes everything you send it.
