OT: SPF Anyone?

Same here/  I updated DNS I January but I'll proably use SpamAssassin
support for it instead.  You know there are going to be a lot of domains
out there that won't have SPF records so it makes sense to use a scoring
method first.   The score and MailScanner's high spam action should be
enough to implement an SPF solution.  Granted MailScanner will need to
be updated for SA 3.0 to work, but it's only the SA.pm that'll need
updated to use different calls.  But that all is still a ways off.

Mike,
   While I added an SPF TXT entry in my DNS for "colby.edu" back in
mid-December, I haven't rushed towards it yet.  My understanding is that
sendmail 8.13 will have more hooks for it.  I also understand that AOL
will start using SPF in production on July 1, 2004.  I figure that the
other big boys (MSN, hotmail, etc) will also start using it this summer.
I'll let them break things first.  My general plan is to implement this
summer.
