Title: SPF record
Yes, the Whitelist Auth seems to be the best solution.  I would think publishing a private IP address in a DNS record would be strange.   Thanks for your help.

I would either put the private IP in the SPF record, use WHITELIST AUTH to whitelist users who authenticate with the SMTP server, or counterbalance the SPF test failure weight with an IP whitelist.

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] SPF record

Hello,

Perhaps this is the wrong place to ask.  If so, please let me know.

We have Imail/Declude installed on a private network, and is accessed through a firewall that has our public address.   I have put an SPF record on our public DNS server.   As far as I can tell, it's correct and working as it should EXCEPT when one user of our domain sends mail to another user on our domain.  In that case, we get a failure..   My hunch is that the SPF test is basing it's decision on the private network address which is NOT contained in the SPF record. 

 If that's the case, would it be appropriate to put the private address in the SPF record….that seems wrong.  Is there another option for the SPF record that covers this situation?

Any thoughts?

Corby
