I've been using strict SPF validation for this as well on my personal .  I ran into a single issue with a single server on the outside of my network that does email alerts based on process status on that server that I didn't have added to SPF.  As far as blocking *@fqdn, I've done that a few times too however I've been trying to stick with SPF.

Subject: Blacklisting your own domain?

After having yet another user fall for a phishing scam and giving their user/pass out to spammers, and the ensuing headaches (delistings, temporary re-routings, etc), I'm decided to try something really simple in SpamAssassin:

blacklist_from          *@pil.net

I'm trying to think how this might cause problems, but I can't think of any. 
Users that SMTP Auth or POP Before SMTP bypass SA.  Is this fairly common practice already?  Am I that slow to the game?
