* This is the modus mailing list * The problem with SPF's is I have no way to publish the appropriate SPF for a traveling client who may be connecting via earthlink today. He/she can't send their email to our server because of the smtp port proxy in place so they use earthlink's. As a result they are going to fail on an SPF lookup and then I am going to get the tech support call?
