Well, your rule #1 would block my messages, I'm in Canada and sending with the From header [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Somebody pointed me to SPF. http://spf.pobox.com - This really looks > good.

There's allready a SPF plugin for qpsmtpd, it's sender_permitted_from and it's available in the current CVS. BTW, there's an IETF workgroup (MARID: http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/marid-charter.html) to make something like SPF an official RFC. I think that would be great, most big players (AOL, Yahoo, Earthlink and Microsoft) are interested. AOL allready publishes SPF records and Hotmail/Microsoft publishes Caller-ID records which are interpreted by the SPF perl module.
