pch.net publishes a SPF record: "v=spf1 ip4:204.61.210.70/32 mx mx:woodynet.net a:sprockets.gibbard.org a:ghosthacked.net ~all" Besides going from soft-fail (~all) to fail (-all), they are already giving you the tools you need to validate a MAIL FROM: claim.Thats all very well and good, but advising people who do not validate with spf to whitelist by domain name is an over-simplification.
So call it additional clue-boundary to entry and be done with this silly thread.
Besides, the site doesn't specify how to filter/whitelist...just to make sure you can accept mail from pch.net. A simple person might take that to mean "I better allow any @pch.net from address" but that's not what the site says.
