It's not "especially forwarding", it's only 251-forwarding to third parties abusing the original MAIL FROM. That was always illegal in STD 10, you had to add the route to the MAIL FROM. RfC 2821 removed the routing from bounces, and that implicitly obsoleted 251-forwarding. It's not SPF breaking stuff, quite the contrary, SPF tries to fix something broken by 2821. - Frank Ellermann
