Does it not seem a little strange that ISA works like this? Do other
popular firewalls such as CheckPoint behave like this for published
servers?

But if there is an A or PTR record related to the IP of the external nic
of
ISA, and that record shows the domain, then again anything coming out of
it
will pass.

BTW, many of us active in the war are spam are not scoring or relying on
SPF
PASS. This is because spammers are also setting up SPF records. We are
instead mainly using SPF FAIL.
