That won't work here. Marc's customers are the mail recipients. They can't get 
all Marc's servers added to all SPF records in the whole world. There are two 
possible solutions: envelope sender rewriting or adjusting the SPF policy on 
the destination (meaning: adding Marc's servers as permitted senders for all 
domains (perhaps that was what you meant) or applying the SPF check to the 
server that delivered to Marc's servers, e.g. by adding Marc's server to 
internal_networks). Stubbornly demanding that the envelope sender address be 
unmodified without adjusting the local policy is not going to work. It's the 
same thing as demanding that the envelope sender always be trusted by 
everybody, but we know that it can't be.
