--- Begin Message ---Package: rmilter Version: 1.6.1 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer, If you look at src/spf.c you'll see the following code snippet: /* No domain part in envfrom field - do not make spf check */ if (domain_pos == NULL) { return 1; } This is not the correct behavior for the SPF protocol. If you look at RFC 7208 section 2.4 (the second paragraph), it says: [RFC5321] allows the reverse-path to be null (see Section 4.5.5 in [RFC5321]). In this case, there is no explicit sender mailbox, and such a message can be assumed to be a notification message from the mail system itself. When the reverse-path is null, this document defines the "MAIL FROM" identity to be the mailbox composed of the local-part "postmaster" and the "HELO" identity (which might or might not have been checked separately before). Rather than simply return in this case, rmilter should retrieve the remote host's HELO/EHLO identity and perform the check with postmaster@HELO. Note: Although RFC 7208 is fairly recent, the requirement was the same in its predecessor RFC 4408.
