Re: [dnswl-users] Testing SPF on DNSWL domains


I've always had issues just rejecting outright. Have since just let the spam filters just mark it as junk, unless other things override that setting, like valid reply to a submitted email, pinpals, ...

But in the testing time, we had so many phone calls about missing emails and other issues, it just wasn't worth the policy to reject it at that phase.


Quoting Alessandro Vesely <vesely@xxxxxxx>:

Hi all,
I tested the SPF behavior and policy of the listed domains.  The
results are displayed at http://www.tana.it/sw/spftest/

I hoped to grasp who/why still does reject-on-fail, but could not
achieve that.  The results might still be interesting to read.  I
changed my SPF record to
  v=spf1 +ip4:62.94.243.226 ?exists:%{ir}.list.dnswl.org -all
after writing that.

I'd be willing to repeat that test every month/year/decade, depending
on whether there's interest about it.

Comments are welcome.
