Wouldn't that be funny that everyone started rejecting mail from them because 
they didn't do that. Yet, they pushed for the "deadline" for everyone else to 
have SPF published? Hahaha...

Well, a quick check shows:

MSN:		NO
Hotmail:	NO
Yahoo:		NO
AOL:		YES
Earthlink.net:	YES
NetZero:	YES - weird record though.


  Anyway...
