Is this still true for a significant number of today's MTAs?  I was under
the impression that these days most use SPF or one of its successors.

I don't read it this way.  As I read the logs, it is the comcast
mailserver that is rejecting the MAIL FROM with a 450.

Reading between the lines, the MAIL FROM is foo@os2bbs.org and the RCPT TO
is robert.wolfe@winserver.us.

>Maybe we need to see a longer section of the log to work this out.

We also need to know what the senders MX record looks like.  If we assume
that mail.os2bbs.org is the mx then the reject make sense if the comcast
mail server does SPF validation.
