(Not sure that's the point of SPF!)
So you need to use a (separate from your ISP*) mail service provider
that handles SPF, perhaps by re-writing the envelope header stuff
using the Sender Rewriting Scheme
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sender_Rewriting_Scheme).
[*]I was howled down before for suggesting using an email service
provider, hopefully it won't happen this time!
