A better approach, I think, would be to keep a list of domains that get SPF 
Pass that spam you and just reject mail from those domains.  As we've 
discussed previously, it's trivial to have a record equiavlent to +all that 
doesn't look like it.  

Rather than special case +all, I think you'd get more mileage out of a more 
general solution.
