1. Shouldn't we have Return-Path: higher up on the list of envelope
sender headers that are checked in get_envelope_from() ? I think the
heuristic could probably use some work, perhaps look at the top
Received: line to determine a priority order for headers.
2. ROUND_THE_WORLD - is this still a tflags net test?
3. NO_DNS_FOR_FROM is broken ... again. I've known this has been
misdesigned (using the foreground mx() function in Net::DNS) for a
while, but the right solution eluded me until now.
0.000 0.0000 0.0000 0.500 0.47 1.10 NO_DNS_FOR_FROM
0.000 0.0000 0.0000 0.500 0.45 1.10 NO_DNS_FOR_FROM:bzoetekouw
0.000 0.0000 0.0000 0.500 0.48 1.10 NO_DNS_FOR_FROM:jm
0.000 0.0000 0.0000 0.500 0.47 1.10 NO_DNS_FOR_FROM:parkerm
0.000 0.0000 0.0000 0.500 0.46 1.10 NO_DNS_FOR_FROM:quinlan
0.000 0.0000 0.0000 0.500 0.49 1.10 NO_DNS_FOR_FROM:rODbegbie
I have a patch to fix NO_DNS_FOR_FROM. 1000 ham and spam randomly
sampled from my corpus after flushing my bind DNS cache:
4.002 8.0000 0.0000 1.000 0.94 0.00 NO_DNS_FOR_FROM
In addition to fixing the test and producing good results, the patch:
- changes the MX test to use background sockets
- skip_rbl_checks becomes skip_dns_checks, rbl_timeout becomes
dns_timeout
- check_mx_attempts and check_mx_delay are gone
