Well that was my point, most organisations do not enforce SPF yet. I
am not saying it is useless, i am just saying that until other
providers come together to enforce it, it will be difficult to be the
only one enforcing SPF. Take google:
_spf.google.com. 300 IN TXT "v=spf1 ip4:216.239.32.0/19
ip4:64.233.160.0/19 ip4:66.249.80.0/20 ip4:72.14.192.0/18
ip4:209.85.128.0/17 ip4:66.102.0.0/20 ip4:74.125.0.0/16
ip4:64.18.0.0/20 ip4:207.126.144.0/20 ip4:173.194.0.0/16 ?all"
As stated here: http://www.openspf.org/SPF_Record_Syntax
"?" Neutral
Neutral The SPF record specifies explicitly that nothing can be said
about validity accept
