I was suggesting the same thing -- that you leave your comments about the merits of sender verification systems off this list. Doubly so with such profound statements of sender-verification wisdom as "yeah right, M$ windoze is the best OS in the world*."

If you bothered to actually read my post, you'd see that I merely seconded the notion that a hook for a sender-verification system might be a good idea. In fact, I agreed with your idea that we should exclude SPF, and all other sender-verification systems, as there are much broader uses for such a hook.

qmail-ldap exists *only* because we decided that regular qmail does not meet our needs. It is possible that qmail-ldap might want to implement this idea, even if regular qmail does not. We can certainly save some time by considering the existing posts to the qmail list. Those post however, do not preclude us from having our own discussion. More importantly, they don't give you the prerogative to police that discussion.

So if you could, even just for a day or two, avoid bashing every post that's even tangentially related to SPF, I'd really appreciate it. Who knows, we might even make it easier for you to implement whatever "half-baked" sender-verification system you prefer.
