Anyone know of a really good way of running a battery of test against a server that is setup with spf? So as to make sure it is working properly.
Also I ready that by using SPF it breaks forwarding. Is that true and why, and is there a way to work around it? ----- Original Message ----- From: "CLEMENT Francis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, September 13, 2004 5:17 AM Subject: [xmail] Re: OT: Spam & SPF > > About SPF, and Sender ID and expecially then the future rfc common to = > spf > and sender id will be approved (soon) I think that major mail server > developpers will quickly integrate these features in they products. > > So I think it will be a good think to see next xmail version include = > such > features internaly (with options in server.tab to = > enable/disable/configure > parameters) without need to use external filters (performances issues, = > ....) > (like dbls and rdns that are in xmail not in external filters ...) > > Francis > > > > -----Message d'origine----- > > De : Nick Marino [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Envoy=E9 : vendredi 10 septembre 2004 18:46 > > =C0 : [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Objet : [xmail] Re: OT: Spam & SPF > >=20 > >=20 > >=20 > > ----- Original Message -----=20 > > From: "Kevin Williams" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Sent: Friday, September 10, 2004 10:53 AM > > Subject: [xmail] Re: OT: Spam & SPF > >=20 > >=20 > > > We all (should) know that no one single tool will prevent=20 > > all spam from > > > reaching our mailboxes.
