I tried to test policyd-spf-perl manually with results as can be seen below. This does seem to confirm the notion that for some as yet unbeknown reason the process is not being launched. Any ideas where I should be looking? [root@dns1 /usr/local/sbin]# postfix-policyd-spf-perl request=smtpd_access_policy protocol_state=RCPT protocol_name=SMTP helo_name=h****forge.com queue_id=8045F2AB23 sender=info@h****forge.com recipient=da...@vizion2000.net client_address=81.169.1.52 client_name=h****.server*******.net action=PREPEND Received-SPF: none (h****forge.com: No applicable sender policy available) receiver=dns1.vizion2000.net; identity=mailfrom; envelope- from="info@h****forge.com"; helo=h****forge.com; client-ip=81.169.1.52
