And that's exactly how SPF is supposed to work.  You shouldn't whitelist
domains willy-nilly because they can be spoofed, and you shouldn't allow
SPF "pass" messages through without spam-scanning because spammers set
up SPF records, but the combination of a domain you trust and an SPF "pass"
is a definite ham indicator.

We also ignore end-user-created whitelists on a domain or sender if there's an
SPF "fail" or "softfail".
