Hi,
I was debugging a Barracuda when I noticed an interresting thing. I saw
email coming in from a domain which is clearly for spam related to those
blue pills for men.
They have a SPF record but it is a "everything goes" one. I guess it is
intended to try to bypass filters.
If it becomes more common we might wish to use this knowledge to fight
back against spammers.
Hugo.
