This is offtopic for this list and not helpful in any case. Some people like and use SPF and some people don't. Rejecting or discarding mail due simply to a lack of and SPF record is idiotic and domain owners are completely free to publish a record or not. Consult Google if you want to know my views on SPF (they aren't hard to find). If you want to discuss SPF, there is an spf-discuss mailing list where such discussions are on topic (see http://www.openspf.org/Forums for details). Scott K
From: JunkYardMail1 on 5 Jul 2010 00:08 US financial services industry group endorses SPF, so most banks, credit unions, brokerages, etc. publish an SPF record. MAAWG: "At the very least, senders should incorporate SPF records for their mailing domains". Austrailan DoD Recommends SPF Google.com, GoogleMail.com, Gmail.com, Comcast.net, Verizon.net, Frontier.net, Charter.com, Microsoft.com, Hotmail.com, Live.com, AOL.com All publish SPF records as well. It is simply becoming unnecessary to accept email from domains which do not publish an SPF record to let receiving domains know the systems that are authorized to transfer email for them. And doing so cuts into spam significantly. -------------------------------------------------- From: <JunkYardMail1(a)Verizon.net> Sent: Sunday, July 04, 2010 7:51 PM To: <postfix-users(a)postfix.org> Subject: Re: Postfix.org SPF > Yahoo has ulterior motives?

If not, please DO NOT reply to this email or continue this thread. This is a technical mailing list ABOUT POSTFIX. Thank you. -- Sahil Tandon <sahil(a)FreeBSD.org>
From: JunkYardMail1 on 5 Jul 2010 00:27 My original post was regarding postfix. But you and others who seemed more interested in taking it off topic to squelch the request for postfix.org to publish an SPF record. I oblige the challenge and then you all start complain about thread being off topic. Well it wouldn't be off topic if you all wouldn't have taken it off topic. So now, how about it. How about an SPF record for the postfix.org domain, from which posting to this mail list come. Anyone opposed to the postfix.org domain publishing an SPF record? -------------------------------------------------- From: "Sahil Tandon" <sahil(a)FreeBSD.org> Sent: Sunday, July 04, 2010 9:12 PM To: <postfix-users(a)postfix.org> Subject: Re: Postfix.org SPF > On Sun, 2010-07-04 at 21:08:58 -0700, JunkYardMail1(a)Verizon.net wrote: > > [blah blah blah] > >> It is simply becoming unnecessary to accept email from domains which >> do not publish an SPF record to let receiving domains know the systems >> that are authorized to transfer email for them.
