Which is another reason why it doesn't work well - a large percentage
(perhaps the majority) of spam is sent through trojans running on poorly
secured Windows boxes. If Peter were running such a machine, yes, you as
an evil spammer could easily send spam as peter_e@gmx.net through
mail.gmx.net.

SPF just legitimsed that spam :-(
