yes.  for HELO checks, that's what it does -- it seems a little
bizarre, but that's the standard!

Another spf HELO checking mystery

2005-08-16 Thread Steve Martin

Can someone explain what is going on with this SPF check?

Aug 16 10:36:22 x spamassassin[6873]: spf: checking HELO  
(helo=mail01.infostations.net, ip=69.19.135.50)
Aug 16 10:36:22 x spamassassin[6873]: spf: query for / 
69.19.135.50/mail01.infostations.net: result: none, comment: SPF:  
domain of sender mail01.infostations.net does not designate mailers


infostations.net does indeed designate mailers and the text record  
for infostations.net specifies 69.19.135.50 as a valid address.


Is spf doing the lookup on mail01.infostations.net?  That does not  
designate a mailer so it seems that is the case.


Is it doing the right thing?
