There's nothing in the base email protocols that prevents one from sending mail as you. That's what the email authentication field is all about.
SPF doesn't solve the problem by itself. What needs to happen is general industry adoption of protocols and services that implement DMARC and/or protocols like it. -MSK From: <ther...@americanrecruitmentservices.com<mailto:ther...@americanrecruitmentservices.com>> Date: Fri, 28 Sep 2012 17:45:34 -0700 To: <dmarc-discuss@dmarc.org<mailto:dmarc-discuss@dmarc.org>> Subject: [dmarc-discuss] Help Some Stranger is Using My Email Help! Some stranger is using my email address to email out to others spam and junk emails. I am getting the bounced back emails in my inbox. I contacted Support at Go Daddy and they told me to create an SPF record. It did not work. I wonder how a person learned to do this? What can I do to stop them?
