who defines what legitimate mail is?

Anyway, thanks for having a look > at the package. """ tumgreyspf is a policy filter for mail servers which aims to lower the spam count. It combines SPF lookups with greylisting in such a way that messages are only greylisted if their sender domains do not have valid and matching SPF records. This can help reduce the number of spam messages the system has to process.
