I've yet to hear an argument for blocking port 25 *inbound* that made 
sense however.

And yes, SPF holds promise, but I doubt it will eliminate all spam, and 
the over/under on widespread enough implementation of it to the point 
where it makes a difference is probably 3 - 5 years.

Speedfactory is a little more expensive ,but not enough so where my 
expense reports have been rejected, thankfully. If I were paying for it 
myself, I'd consider it worth the expense. The first time you need 
support, and don't have to spend an hour on hold to talk to someone sans 
clue the extra couple of bucks a month is worth it.
