But it (may) save "my" domains from false complaints and bounced emails just because some spammer sends email "From: xxx@mydomain". Yes, SPF does not avoid spam in general (and BTW nobody on openspf.org claims that). And yes, we all want such a thing, but AFAICS there won't be such a thing (except making email - at least - as expensive as snail mail).
