IMO this shows quite well that trusting only in SPF is stupid. For 
example, KDE does not run an SMTP server I could use to send mail with 
my kde.org address. Therefore I use my alumni account at my former 
university for sending mail. Consequently, my KDE-related messages will 
never have a valid SPF.
