OT: SPF query

[Michele Neylon :: Blacknight Solutions]

I was reading up on this a bit last night and was wondering what others
thought.

My understanding is that SPF checks that the sender is *from* the domain,
but how would that work in the case where the domain is split?
ie. mail is handled in one location, web in another. The website, for
example, generates emails to users with the From field

or

In the case of some reseller type situations mail routed through a reseller
account is sent with the reseller's email in the From field

Maybe this is way OT and maybe I am missing something.. but any thoughts
would be appreciated

Thanks

Michele
