The Microsoft Sender ID system is not the same as SPF.
The technet article I posted implied (and real-world tests seem to confirm)
that MSFT Exchange 2003 really does SPF lookups against header-sender domains.

David,
It may well do.
Sorry, I'm not familiar with what Microsoft does. I was merely pointing
out that you shouldn't confuse a Microsoft proprietary standard that
happens to have a similar name with SPF as they are not the same thing.
If Microsoft want to examine the From header then that is their concern.
Googling shows others tend to agree with you that their implementation
is broken, or in your words wrong. It is certainly wrong in SPF terms,
but again it's not SPF :-)
