Sorry... I should have eliminated the first part, but what I want to
do is to disable the SPF validation, as a lot of my clients have been
having problems recieving from other emails. Most of them because they
don't have the SPF. ( I have started adding the spf to all my domains)
but most of the ppl that are sending to my server don't have any
idea/possibility to add the SPF to their DNSs (as they don't manage
them and don't understand as they are not technical ppl) and blame us
that we have a huge problem as we are rejecting the email (because
their servers don't say that they are the problem)
So is there a way to disable the SPF validation?
Re: [qmailtoaster] Let's talk about SPF Records - How are you
implementing them?

Are your customers or domains demanding to use them?
SPF record behavior is set in /var/qmail/control/spfbehavior . Whether
or not you have a SPF record set up or not is up to you - that'
handled in your DNS records. Here is a snip from
www.saout.de/misc/spf/ that shows the different levels you can set it to:
Use this to turn on SPF checking. The default value is 0 (off).
You can specify a value between 0 and 6:
* 0: Never do SPF lookups, don't create Received-SPF headers
* 1: Only create Received-SPF headers, never block
* 2: Use temporary errors when you have DNS lookup problems
* 3: Reject mails when SPF resolves to /fail (deny)/
* 4: Reject mails when SPF resolves to /softfail/
* 5: Reject mails when SPF resolves to /neutral/
* 6: Reject mails when SPF does not resolve to /pass/
Values bigger than 3 are strongly discouraged, you probably want to go
with 2 or 3.
g,
i believe the default setting is 3 in the toaster setup...i just checked
mine, it was set at 3.
as you can see from the above, you can turn it down to a 2 or a 1, or
turn it off with a 0.
